In regards to the local firearms companies, there are several that come to mind, including FAMAE of Chile, which produces copies of the SIG SG 540 series and the SAF submachine gun, as well as Indumil of Colombia, which I believe inheirited the official license to produce the Galil rifle. Argentina and Venezuela also have domestic weapons manufacturing capabilities for the FAL and the AK-103 respectively.

As for weapons that would realistically be seen in South America, M16s wouldn't be particularly out of place. A number of police and military forces in Central and South America use M16/CAR-15 rifles, and porous borders mean that criminals could easily get their hands on them as well.
