Semper Pacifica is a live-fire tribute to the courage, chaos, and camaraderie of the United States Marines who fought through hell in the Pacific. This event celebrates 250 years of the U.S. Marine Corps and 80 years since the Battle of Iwo Jima, honoring their legacy with a course that pushes modern warriors through historically inspired island-assault scenarios.

This is meant to challenge you—mentally and physically. You’ll shoot, crawl, haul, and hustle. You WILL get dirty. You WILL get tired. But you’ll also eat good and laugh hard:

• Marine Corps 250th Birthday Cake
   
• Hot Breakfast & BBQ Lunch provided
   

No excuses. You're being fed and celebrated.

Teamwork pays off, so it behooves you to bring a friend. Some ranges are buddy-dependent, and your choice of partner could either elevate your score—or tank it.

Pack light and watch your history.
The real Raiders and Riflemen often ditched their gear on the beach and ran with nothing but boots, rifle, and extra ammo.
Piss pots (WWII steel pot helmets) are HIGHLY encouraged.
They’re cheap and everywhere—check Amazon for replicas. It adds to the immersion, and hey—LARP hard, win harder.

Ammo Note:
 

• 5.56/.223 is provided for all rifle stages.
   
• .30 Carbine available—just give us a heads-up if you’re bringing an M1 Carbine or other period rifle.
   
• Sidearms are optional (only used in the 50/50 bonus round).

Ammo replenishment op. Crawl under barbed wire, carry mortar rounds, and suppress a bunker before your buddy runs dry. Time, teamwork, and accuracy will make or break this one.

Buddy Range – Your partner’s success = your score.
Features: Barbed wire, ammo crates, prone/UKD targets, smoke, bunker assault
 

Marine pilot down. You and your partner must recover him before the IJA captures him. Fast, accurate shooting on the move—then evac while your buddy lays down final cover fire for bonus points.

Buddy Range – Bonus points based on buddy’s performance.
Features: Rapid movement, downed pilot recovery, dynamic shots, cover fire bonus
 

You're the only Marine forward of the line. Eliminate the enemy Forward Observer team before they finish off your unit. One critical catch: a hidden sniper must be taken out for full points.

Solo Range – High-pressure suppression mission.
Features: Forward Observer kill, hidden sniper, tactical defilade
 

Head-to-head challenges. $5 buy-in per round, doubles every rematch. Scorecard bonus points on the line, and all proceeds support our veteran charities. Harder than the Crayons & Carbines 50/50 course, with zero spoilers—except this:
The Spirit of John Basilone is watching.

Bonus Range – Optional, but tough and rewarding.
Features: Fundraising challenge course, progressive buy-in, optional sidearm use
 

Each range honors one top shooter with the best combo of score and WWII immersion (LARP)—so go all in. Show up squared away in your gear, talk the talk, shoot straight, and win big.

This is a celebration of the United States Marine Corps, but ALL ARE WELCOME.
You don’t need to be a Marine to test yourself against these battlefields—but if you are one, you better not sit this out.

Tough? Yes.
Fun? Absolutely.

Lock it in. Pack light. Move fast.
We’ll see you on the line.
