The 2012 film is a "reboot" and the cast includes Lena Headey and Olivia Thirlby.


The following weapons were used in the film Dredd:

Pistols

"Lawgiver Mk. II"

The "Lawgiver Mk. II" is the standard pistol carried by the Judges in the film, including Dredd (Karl Urban) and Cassandra Anderson (Olivia Thirlby), as well as Judges Lex (Langley Kirkwood), Chan (Karl Thaning), and Kaplan (Michele Levin). It can fire in several different modes, which are selected via voice activation, and features a digital display that keeps track of its remaining ammunition.

When being psychically interrogated by Anderson, Kay (Wood Harris) fires a Lawgiver in his imagination, but it fails to wound her. Later, when he attempts to use Anderson's own Lawgiver on her, he finds that it is coded to its owner's DNA, and will self destruct if anyone else attempts to use it.

Prop wise, the Lawgivers seen in the film appear to be Glock 17 pistols housed in futuristic shells.

The weapon's various fire modes include:

  • Rapid Fire (fully automatic).
  • Armor piercing rounds.
  • Incendiary rounds (these appear to be white phosphorus, and contain vastly more incendiary material than would be possible given their volume).
  • Stun (A non-lethal electric charge that incapacitates the target).
  • "Hot Shot" - a superheated round capable of melting flesh. In the comics, these are heat seeking rounds that track targets based on their specific heat signature. However, it is not clear whether they retain this feature in the film.
  • "High-Ex" (High Explosive).
  • Silencer Mode. The Lawgiver features a built-in suppressor that retracts into the frame when not in use.

Dredd fires a burst from his Lawgiver. Judging by the numerous casings in the air, it would appear that at least some of the Glock pistols used were converted to full auto. Also note that the muzzle flash is not coming out of the compensator cuts (see above) in the barrel, indicating that they are purely cosmetic.

Here it would appear that Dredd's Lawgiver is in Silencer Mode. However, the shots he fires in this scene sound no different than the unsuppressed shots we hear throughout the rest of the film.

Beretta A302 (Fictional Mock-Up)

Judge Alvarez (Edwin Perry) carries a Beretta A302 fitted with fictional dressings to appear futuristic. While its appearance brings the SPAS-12 to mind, Dredd crew confirm that it is in fact a Beretta A300-series semi-automatic shotgun in a SPAS 12-like casing.

Submachine Guns

Heckler & Koch MP5A3

Towards the end of the film, Cassandra Anderson (Olivia Thirlby) uses a Heckler & Koch MP5A3. This particular weapon is fitted with a "Navy SEF" trigger group, which is essentially a Navy trigger housing with the non ambidextrous SEF selector and markings. Her MP5 switches between having a three-lug barrel and a "smooth" barrel (similar to that of a chopped and converted HK94) in a continuity error.
