Armenian weapons exhibition in Sardarapat
17:31 | June 21,2014 | Social
Today there were many people in Sardarapat: gunsmiths' day was
celebrated there. As recently smith's craft has been forgotten,
"Chilingaryan-Mamikonyan family" historic-ethnographic NGO head Mels
Chilingaryan organized an exhibition, where smiths from different
regions of Armenia, as well as from Yerevan took part. Armenian
weapons as well as from the ordnances of the First World War to modern
weapons were exhibited. Exhibition participant, smith Ashot was
working in the presence of all, and to the question, whether people
appreciate smiths' work, Ashot Galstyan answered, "There are people,
who appreciate and there are also those, who say that it is a simply a
piece of metal."
"Aspar Arms" company smith thinks that Armenian weapon making has
great future, "Now there is no country in the world, where all the
details of the weapon are made wholly, if we look from that point of
view, Armenian weapon making doesn't yield. What's more, Armenian
weapon making is developing."
We also note that RA Defense Minister Seyran Ohanyan and senior clergy
were also present at the event. "Karin" ethnographical dance ensemble
was also present.
