Corrected entry: The possessed miners seem to have some sophisticated weapons - elaborately made swords and throwing discs, for instance. Where did they get them from? They didn't have time to make anything that elaborate.

Corrected entry: Although the film is set many years into our future all the characters are very visibly using modern day weaponry which includes a H&K G36 assault rifle a MP5k and a SPAS 12 guage shotgun. One would think that there would be improvements over modern gun designs...
Correction: Firearms don't change much when they reach a perfected design. There is every reason to believe all the weapons in the movie will be around another 50 years. For example, the US Army used the Colt M1911 for almost 70 years before replacing it with the Beretta 92F.

Correction: They had several days and lots of machines to build them on. The creatures possessing them are shown with those weapons in the past, so clearly they knew how to build them.
