Firearms were manufactured in Georgia from the 17th-18th centuries, as a result of which they were widespread among the population. In the 17th and especially the 18th centuries, Georgians, in large part, used firearms. In addition, the products manufactured in Tbilisi were distributed to neighboring countries. Flintlock rifles had three main components: the gun barrel, the flintlock and the stock. According to sources, in Tbilisi, shock-flint locks and butts were produced locally. When it comes to gun barrels, the picture is different. Typically, imported weapons barrels from Crimea were used to manufacture firearms in Tbilisi and the rest of Georgia. It is because of the Crimean barrels in Georgia that the most common name for firearms was "Kirimi" / "Hirimi". The Weapon Fund of Ethnology and Modern History of the National Museum of Georgia (Museum of Georgia named after Simon Janashia) contains hundreds of rifles with weapon barrels imported from Crimea. The import of gun barrels was well documented in the Georgian tax tariff, which allowed scientists to determine the prices of weapons at the time.
