The British variant of the FN FAL rifle, the L1A1 SLR is seen in the hands of of a resistance fighter inside a grocery store.
Heckler & Koch Rifle
A rifle of the Heckler & Koch pattern can be seen being used by the human survivors.

It also appears to have a flashlight attached to side of the front sight block.
