A projectile casing includes a pair of sockets, each socket sized to carry one of the pair of pellets and a selectively activatable 0; pressure source, carried by the projectile casing. The pressure source is capable of expelling the entangling projectile from the projectile casing toward a subject. A launcher carries an activator operable to activate the pressure source to expel the entangling projectile --- from the projectile casing toward the subject. The projectile casing is removably engageable with the launcher to allow removal of the GC 1-1 projectile casing from the launcher after expulsion of the entangling projectile from the projectile casing. 0 ei o [Continued on next page] WO 2018/009255 A3 MIDEDIM011010EIREEM00 IIIO1101 01111111110111101111111111111111111 MK, MN, MW, MX, MY, MZ, NA, NG, NI, NO, NZ, OM, PA, PE, PG, PH, PL, PT, QA, RO, RS, RU, RW, SA, SC, SD, SE, SG, SK, SL, SM, ST, SV, SY, TH, TJ, TM, TN, TR, TT, TZ, UA, UG, US, UZ, VC, VN, ZA, ZM, ZW.
