    METAL STORM LIMITED ACN 064 270 006 CEO BULLETIN Brisbane, Australia – 23 November 2010: Metal Storm Limited (ASX trading code: MST, OTC Symbol: MTSXY). Fellow Shareholders, This CEO Bulletin follows on from the Bulletin released on the 4th November. In the previous release I covered business development, marketing and corporate development activities. This release covers updates on the Land Warfare Conference, current contracts and product development. Land Warfare Conference The Land Warfare Conference, held last week at the Brisbane Convention Centre, is the most significant event on the Australian Defence Industry calendar. This year was no exception with a broad range of defence companies exhibiting together with various government and military agencies including the Defence Materiel Organisation (DMO) and the Defence Science and Technology Organisation (DSTO). Metal Storm exhibited throughout the conference on a double booth near the centre of the exhibition hall. The weapons we exhibited included MAUL™, 3GL and the RedBack multi-barrel pod, plus the original one-million-rounds-per-minute “Bertha” machine gun, which holds a place in the Guinness Book of Records as the fastest machine gun ever created. For personal use only Page 1 of 5 Metal Storm Limited ACN 064 270 006 The conference was well attended and our booth was continuously busy. Feedback from visitors was overwhelmingly positive. Both MAUL™ and 3GL received considerable attention, with a range of potential applications for these weapons being put forward by delegates. We were also pleased with the attention given to the stand by senior military officers and politicians visiting the show. In addition to the exhibition stand, Metal Storm had a paper accepted by the conference organisers entitled “Stacked round weapons – from the drawing board to the battlefield”, by David Pashen.

One thing that’s for sure, the cat is out of the bag . .”1 Three-dimensional printers will allow people with no technical expertise to produce firearms at home. These machines,2 employing a novel fabrication technique called additive manufacturing (“AM”), may seem alien, indeed miraculous.

  • TEAR GASSING by REMOTE CONTROL the Development and Promotion of Remotely Operated Means of Deliver- Ing Or Dispersing Riot Control Agents
    TEAR GASSING BY REMOTE CONTROL The development and promotion of remotely operated means of deliver- ing or dispersing riot control agents December 2015 The Remote Control project is a project of the Network for Social Change hosted by Oxford Research Group. The project examines and challenges changes in military engage- ment, in particular the use of drones, special operations forces (SOF), private military and security companies (PMSCs) and cyber and intelligence activities. The Omega Research Foundation (ORF) is an independent UK-based research, investigation and policy organisation. It is dedicated to providing rigorous, objective, evidence-based research on the manufacture, trade in, and use of, military, security and police technologies. Bradford Non-Lethal Weapons Research Project (BNLWRP) is part of the Bradford Disarmament Research Centre (BDRC) of Bradford Uni- versity. Its primary objectives are to explore and compile open source information on so called “non-lethal” or “less lethal” weapons, to objec- tively analyse the implications of their development, proliferation, use and potential misuse for international peace, human security and human rights; and to develop strategies for regulating or prohibiting the introduction and potential use of the most dangerous of these weapons. Dr Michael Crowley is BNLWRP Project Co-ordinator and a Research Associate at ORF. He has published widely on arms control, security and human rights issues. His latest book, Chemical Control: Regulation of Inca- pacitating Chemical Agent Weapons, Riot Control Agents and their Means of Delivery, was published by Palgrave Macmillan in November 2015.

The relationship between use-of-force policy and weapons procurement is close but complex. The adoption of new weapons may call for new policies, while the need to meet international norms in policing, for example, can affect weapons procurement. Market forces and trends in both civilian and military firearms development and procurement also play influential roles in the adoption of new weapons technology. On the streets of cities such as Chicago, Manchester, and Marseille, police officers have increasingly adopted so- called ‘less-lethal’ weapons into their day-to-day activities. A comprehensive review of the use of these weapons by Western police has not yet been undertaken, but police experience in France,1 the United Kingdom, and the United States suggests that countries are facing similar use-of-force challenges that are drawing them to use these weapons. By examining recent trends in police weapons technology and procurement by law enforcement agencies, as well as their use-of-force policies, this chapter highlights the alignment of policies and practices in a small but important sample of the West’s ‘leading-edge’ states. Among the chapter’s conclusions are the following: • Aside from the use of new materials to reduce weight and facilitate customization, law enforcement firearms have not recently experienced significant technological development.

    METAL STORM LIMITED ACN 064 270 006 CEO Bulletin Brisbane, Australia – Tuesday, 8 June 2010: Metal Storm Limited (ASX trading code: MST, OTC Symbol: MTSXY). Fellow Shareholders, The last three months have delivered an unprecedented level of customer demand for Metal Storm products. The US Marines have placed product orders with us and have awarded us an important program that we have been tracking for several years - the Mission Payload Module – Non-Lethal Weapon System. Meanwhile interest in the defence and law enforcement communities is also growing strongly. Not since the early years of Metal Storm technology have we seen as much activity in the press and positive feedback to the Company. This time it is what we are capable of delivering now rather than what might be possible in the future that is exciting the readers, After over a decade of development our military and law enforcement customers are firing all our weapon systems in a production representative form. Our sales team has at last the ability to hand each of our weapons to the customer and have him experience it as is. Finally our customers can feel what it is like to use the weapons and to see how they will satisfy their existing capability gaps – the response has been outstanding. We now have customer demand growing rapidly – next we need to transition the products to manufacturing so that we can start to sell them. So, let me expand on these points: Mission Payload Module – Non-Lethal Weapon System (MPM) Contract I will be issuing a separate CEO Bulletin on the MPM System Development Contract in the coming days as soon as I get appropriate approvals.

  • Limiting Terrorist Use of Advanced Conventional Weapons, by James Bonomo, Giacomo Bergamo, David R
    Errata To: Recipients of MG-510-DHS, Stealing the Sword: Limiting Terrorist Use of Advanced Conventional Weapons, by James Bonomo, Giacomo Bergamo, David R. Frelinger, John Gordon IV, Brian A. Jackson, 2007 From: RAND Corporation Publications Department Date: April 2008 Re: Corrected pages (pp. 18, 120, 122) On page 18, the revolutions-per-minute (RPM) specification for the GLOCK® 18c pistol and the supporting citation have changed in foot- note 15. The relevant portion of the footnote originally read In all cases though, these rates of fire cannot be maintained for any significant time; rather, the advantage is that all the rounds are tightly bunched in space. For comparison, a fully automatic Glock 18c pistol fires an average of 500 rpm. See Metal Storm (2002) and Generation Airsoft (undated). The new text reads In all cases though, these rates of fire cannot be maintained for any significant time; rather, the advantage is that all the rounds are tightly bunched in space. For comparison, a fully automatic Glock 18c pistol fires an average of 1200 rpm. See Metal Storm (2002) and Jane’s Infantry Weapons (2008). i 2 Errata On page 120, the reference to Generation Airsoft (undated) has been deleted.
