When you find weapons, you'll find that they're all given a certain quality, from Shoddy to Flawless and higher. A weapon rated Fine or better can do more damage than its inferior counterparts, and can be enchanted at a workshop run by the trader in Baldur's Gate. With a combination of a magical runestone and up to two gems, you can make a weapon that not only grants bonuses to hit and damage, as with AD&D weapons from time immemorial (and by that I mean "1977"), but inflicts or prevents certain status ailments, or grants or improves certain feats. An enchanted bow may glow with an eerie blue light, to indicate that it raises your Armor rating much like the Dodge feat does, or have a wet-looking red finish, symbolic of the blood it sheds when it hits, causing extra damage.
