Were regular citizens of the Republic of Venice permitted to own and carry arms/weapons?

I haven't got much knowledge about this subject and I just made a very superficial research, but I found that Vendrame, the man who in 1355 blew the whistle on Doge Marin Falier's plot to become absolute ruler of Venice, was awarded many exceptional privileges, one of them being that of being allowed to carry weapons; it seems reasonable then to infer that carrying a weapon was not usually permitted if being allowed to do so was an exceptional privilege. The story of Marin Falier's attempted coup can easily be found in many publications all over the Internet, some of them must be more accurate and detailed.
