Ein weiterer Schwerpunkt sind die Orte der Waffen in der Stadt: Bürgerliche Schießstätten, Zeughäuser und Pulvertürme waren in vielen Städten anzutreffen. Die Waffen in den Händen der Bürger führten aber auch zu Problemen, die sich wiederum in Gerichtsakten niederschlugen. Verschiedene Bewohnergruppen in der Stadt werden zudem nach ihrem Verhältnis zum Waffenbesitz vorgestellt: Kleriker und Juden hatten, anders als dies die Normen vorsahen, vielfachen Umgang mit Waffen.
