The article describes the types of cold weapon and firearms, the places of its manufacture, the manner of wearing, traditions, customs and traditions associated with weapons. It is noted that the weapons were the main value and wealth of the mountaineer, being the main decoration of the guest room. The Vainakh arsenal included guns (top), pistols (tapcha, tapancha). Reverence for arms is reflected in the Chechen proverbs and sayings. The disarmament of the highlander or the abandonment of even one of the components to the enemy was considered the most terrible humiliation for him. The author cites legends related to the rules for the use of weapon adopted in the Chechen society. It is indicated that the centuries-old habit of military campaigns helped the Chechens to appropriately adapt their clothes, footwear and weapons. Military terminology, the names of weapons and the presence of special militant taips or castes in the antiquity prove the willingness of Chechens to defend their Motherland and freedom in any conditions.
