info on sovereign 2

[paint magnet]

Wow, just had to reply to a thread created the same month I joined. Now that I realize it's been five years, I feel old all of a sudden...

I own % Sov's # of the Sov I's and 2 Sov II, I would say the Sov II is much better by far, the bolt design is better and the gun feels light and more comfortable. I own Sov I ooo13, and have own the gun for some time. The basic issue I have with the gun is the 3-way, it is always leaking for one reason or another, I will stay the gun shoot very quite, but I tend to use my Autocoker more, because it seems to be less of of an issue with me.

Teach us to tell people to use the search function huh?

funny that this should come up now... I was about to post a thread alerting people that arrow precision had started making the sovereign again.

[wolf13]

I love my two 1's (all i need is an eclipse now), but arrow really flopped on any sort of promotion in the US with the 2's and 3's.

Is this new stuff merely a continuation of the 3 line or is it actually new features?

Also, when we opened up CC, we added a dedicated sov forum (what can I say, i have a real fondness for them even if noone knows what they are anymore and it fits the broad term if not the narrow). hasn't seen much traffic, but its there.

I played paintball for the first time back in '93, but I didn't really get into the sport until about '02, when I bought my first gun (a Pirahna Pro). I got picked up for a team in Houston, and at our first tounament, I was 'given' a sovereign II (with the stipulation that I would just pay for it later). I thought it was a nice gun. It felt pretty good in my hands, and it was quite consistent. The only problem I had was that I kept short-stroking it. I guess I never played with it enough to learn how to not short-stroke it. Shortly afterward, I bought an Emag, and the sovereign didn't get touched after that. I ended up trading it away for a automag. In retrospect, I wish I had kept the Sovereign. In the past couple of years, I have only seen one or two of them show up on Ebay, and I keep searching for them. If I come across one, and I have the money, I will pick it up, and learn how to shoot it.

Yes, they still make the sov.3. you need to contact Mark Ambrose in the u.s to get one here. His # is 610-437-7138. Tell him Chad Hicks send you.

I Got My Sovereign Back!!!

I spoke to one of my old teammates...the one I traded my Sovereign for an Classic Mag. I got the Sovereign back, but it was missing a piece. All the pieces were there, except the long plastic piece that goes between the grip frame and the body. Anyone know where I can get one...? I may try to give Mark Ambrose a call...

first revival .... 5 years
second revival .... 1 years
third revival .... 2 years

(i dont know to spell revival but you all should know what i mean) and i have no idea on anything about sov's i just think its funny this thread has more multi year revivals then ive ever seen ... talk about beat ing a dead horse (no offence to those that revived it)

edit check custom cockers sov thread might be a lil bit better as its specific to this strange unheard of marker (tho i think their kinda neat lookin after lookin at pics of them)

Holy necropost. Started in 2001(might have been when AO wasn't apart of AGD), and last post before this was 2009... In some states, this post could drive farm equipment, maybe even a car.

I'd watch that video. .....

Its perfectly acceptable for a user with a 2000 join date to necro anything he wants. :P

There's actually a fair bit of Sov discussion on the OldSchoolPaintball group on facebook. I believe there is new US distribution going on for the latest model. I don't recall if its a Sov3 or still 2.
