Nice name douche. Get a new name without 5SFG in it as you are not a Soldier let alone serving in a US Army SF unit.

Actually, yes. The Wasatch is in use with some Army SF groups, it was built for an SF Group. Hence the name Wasatch.

I've gone skiing in various places in the Wasatch Range. Pretty nice mountains. I don't know how SF would take them to Afghanistan though.

The Unit that had HSG build the Wasatch is from SLC. In the Wasatch mountains. Hence the name the Wasatch (Gene is partial to giving his products names of mountains and such).
As for how we got them, we sent a request to general contracting, they contacted HSG and when HSG had them done they sent them to us in country. Since it's release other SF units have purchased it and taken it overseas as well. Now that we have the huge kit the need to buy these units is gone. But from 2003-2006 several SF units have been seen with the Wasatch over seas. |

I own a Tasmanian Tiger chestrig mk2.
It was a choice between this one or the HSGI Wasatch. Maybe next time I'll take a wasatch. |
