Page 33 of the Tyranid Codex, TYRANID CLOSE COMBAT WEAPONS.

Greebo had spent an irritating two minutes in that box. Technically, a cat locked in a box may be alive or it may be dead. You never know until you look. In fact, the mere act of opening the box will determine the state of the cat, although in this case there were three determinate states the cat could be in: these being Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious.

Scything Talons do not give extra attacks in 6th.

As per the Tyranid Codex, you never add additional attacks to your profile unless you have Charged in that turn of assualt.

So a Hive Tyrant always has 4, 5 when he charges, regardless of how many scything talons he has.

A Trygon has 6 attacks, 7 when it charges.

but in BRB on page 51 more thay one weapon says: "However, it's worth remembering that if a model has two or more Melee weapons he gains +l Attack in close combat" and on page 24: "+1 Two weapons: Engaged rnodels with t'wo singlehanded weapons (often a Melee weapon andf or pistol in each hand) get + I Attack. Models with more than two weapons gain no additional benefit; you only get one extra Attack, even if you have four anns and a sword in each." then when i have scything talons than i have +1 for additional waepon and when I have 4 arms and in 2 of them i have swords additional +2 dices. Is taha OK?

No, those are taken into account with the base stats. Scything talons only allow rerolls to misses, they do not add attacks.

General rule of thumb codex trumps BRB, The specific rule is that the more specific rule trumps the more general rule. In this case the Tyranid rule that they gain no extra attacks takes priority.
