Metal Storm Limited today announced that Metal Storm, Inc. received a Contract from Public Works
and Government Services Canada in the amount of USD$63,286. The contract is for the purchase of

and door breaching capabilities for military and law enforcement operators. The MAUL?
provides 5 shot semi-automatic capabilities with the ability to reload 5 rounds in 2 to 3 seconds
providing extended flexibility for escalation of force or force continuum for military and law
enforcement, respectively.
