Since, historically Robin Hood may not have existed, when the story began getting told in 1226 the main weapons were bow/arrow, sword.

The major weapon of Robin Hood's period was the Long Bow. This was a (fairly) recent invention and was used to major result in the Battle of Agincourt Friday 25 October 1415 with Henry V of England. You will (may) recall that one of the attempts of the Sheriff of Nottingham to entrap Robin Hood was to hold an Archery contest.

Did they collect taxes during robin hoods time?

Yes, they collected taxes, and people did not like it at all. We could date Robin Hoods time to the period of perhaps 1190 to 1195, for though he was probably fictional, the captivity of King Richard I, who was of importance in the story, was not. Taxes got worse later when King John promised to ship annual money to Rome as part of a deal to be reinstated in the good graces of the church after being excommunicated.

Who was the king in Robin Hoods time?

Robin Hood was thought to be a supporter of Richard the Lion Heart, who was driven to be an outlaw by the deeds of Richard's brother John.
