MIAMI, July 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — WRAP Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: WRAP) (\u201cWRAP\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d), developer of the WrapShield\u2122 Autonomous Public Safety Platform, today announced the completion of the first operational prototype of Wraptor MX\u2122, the Company\u2019s multi-shot non-lethal restraint platform. WrapShield\u2019s Non-Lethal Response\u2122 layer \u2014 previously served by a single instrument, the BolaWrap\u00ae 150 \u2014 now has a newly unveiled operational component. Together with the DFR-X drone-deployed restraint system, WrapShield is designed to bring together three dedicated non-lethal delivery mechanisms \u2014 handheld, multi-shot, and drone-deployed \u2014 under a single platform architecture.<\/p>\n

\n \u201cBolaWrap introduced a new way for officers to create time, distance, and control through an instrument of restraint. Wraptor MX builds on that foundation and is designed to allow officers to respond to multiple engagements before reloading, potentially giving teams greater flexibility in dynamic and rapidly evolving situations,\u201d <\/em>
\n
\n said Scot Cohen, Chief Executive Officer of WRAP<\/em>
\n <\/strong>
\n . \u201cWraptor MX is much more than another product. We believe it represents the next evolution of our response architecture within WrapShield. We are expanding our ability to deliver proportional sight, sound, and sensation effects across a broader range of public safety operations. As BolaWrap earned adoption by more than 1,000 agencies in over 60 countries, we believe Wraptor MX can extend those capabilities deeper into tactical, corrections, private security, and defense environments.\u201d<\/em>\n <\/p>\n

\n \n <\/p>\n

The announcement builds on ATF Ruling 2026-2, effective July 2, 2026, which classified the BolaWrap\u00ae 150 as neither a firearm nor an \u201cany other weapon,\u201d affirming it as an instrument of restraint under federal law. That determination \u2014 specific to the BolaWrap 150 \u2014 may provide a favorable regulatory reference point for non-lethal restraint technology across corrections, law enforcement, and public-safety applications, and WRAP expects it to accelerate adoption in the United States. Driven by use-of-force reform, policy mandates, and the growth of autonomous response architectures in public safety, the global non-lethal weapons market is estimated at approximately $9.5 billion today and is projected to grow to roughly $13 billion by 2030, according to Grand View Research.1<\/sup><\/p>\n

\n Wraptor MX\u2122 \u2014 Multi-Shot Non-Lethal Restraint Platform<\/strong>\n <\/p>\n

Wraptor MX\u2122 is a modular, multi-shot non-lethal response platform that expands the proven capabilities of BolaWrap\u00ae. Designed for scenarios where multiple engagements may be required, the current prototype is designed to deliver (3) three consecutive BolaWrap deployments before reloading. While the BolaWrap\u00ae 150 remains optimized for individual officers carrying a compact, single-shot restraint device, Wraptor MX is being developed for tactical teams, corrections, perimeter security, and other operational environments where greater response capacity may be needed. As the platform evolves, WRAP expects to explore additional configurations and deployment capacities informed by customer feedback and operational testing.<\/p>\n
