Known officially as the G 580 with EQ Technology, the new G stuffs a battery pack and four electric motors into the internal combustion version’s existing chassis rather than starting from scratch. The electric G-Wagen also receives slight stylistic revisions, mostly in the name of aero. But even if electrification represents the logical next step for a historically established military vehicle that transitioned into a luxury commuter over the past decade-plus, the new G presented a real test for Mercedes R&D. The suspension required the biggest change, specifically for the solid rear axle. Two electric motors simply couldn’t fit in…

His designs also showcase an interest visual balance, where both the…

During a pistol-performance class with Grandmaster Travis McCamish, he ran shooting diagnostics on me and my target. He observed that, although my shot group was well-centered and evenly dispersed, it was too loose, with several rounds outside the intended A-box center. This level of accuracy was unacceptable for the required standard and time constraints set for the course of fire. His recommendation was “Dude, you need to shrink your cone!” Loosely translated, reduce that dispersal circumference from outside the intended target area (A-box) to the inside. To tighten it up, especially in such a compressed time requirement, was outside my…

Folder with a crazy name and a spicy, futuristic look? It could only come from Civivi. This here’s the Neurohaptic, a folder with an intimidating blade and a handle that appears to have taken some of its style cues from the martial weapon category.

It’s a dramatic and low-slung clip, lent further attitude by a long sleek swedge on top and, beneath that, a fuller along the full length of the blade…
