More Police Forces Sign up for MAUL™
Brisbane, Australia – 15 November 2011: Metal Storm Limited.
Metal Storm is pleased to announce that a third Australian Police Force has requested an opportunity
to trial the Metal Storm MAUL™ 12-gauge weapon system. This follows last week’s announcement
that two Australian Police Forces had committed to trial the new weapon.
Metal Storm Inc. (MSI) has advised at the same time, that it has received a purchase order for the
evaluation of the MAUL™ from the East Marlborough Township Police Department in the United
States. East Marlborough Township is a small suburban community in the greater Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania metropolitan area.
Metal Storm CEO, Dr Lee Finniear said that he was pleased not only with the groundswell of
committed interest in the MAUL™, but also that this is being exhibited by agencies of varying sizes
from differing countries.
“We are delighted that a third major Australian Police Force will trial the MAUL™ for law enforcement
operations and we look forward to delivering the systems and support their need to successfully
evaluate the weapon system” he said.
MSI President, Peter Faulkner said that the order from East Marlborough Township Police Department
is a testament of the MAUL’s universal appeal across agencies of all sizes.
“Our marketing efforts are focused not only on the nearly 400 major metropolitan areas in the US but
the more than 17,000 local law enforcement agencies that exist in the US. East Marlborough
Township Police Department is representative of one of thousands of the smaller local municipalities
that can benefit from the utility the MAUL™ offers. The fact that East Marlborough Township Police
Department is trialling the MAUL™ for its local community operations clearly shows that the MAUL™
market is much larger and broader than might otherwise be expected. It extends all the way from the
huge federal agencies right down to the many thousands of small community police departments
throughout the USA”.
The Company is currently undertaking a Rights Issue to raise capital to support taking the MAUL™
into manufacture.
