    Ever wonder why guys refer to guns as female? Definitely hold sensitive !
    Naaaw. its the recoil. Most powder burner guys don't immediately realize that a spring gun recoils significantly rearwards and also repeats that recoil forwards making it difficult to stay on target if not held the same way (usually lightly). Depending on many factors some springer are most hold sensitive than others, particularly light magnum springers do tend to be hold sensitive. My non_PAL HW97K is not hold sensitive, I can soot it like a rim fire and it stays on target. My Nitro Venom, is the opposite, needs a consistent light hold or it won't hit a barn door!

    There is a very very good aftermarket trigger available from Eric called the GTXII. I have three installed and they are single best thing going.

    The smoking is normal but it can be gone in 10 shots or 100 shots. All depends on how much preservative oil is inside the tube.

    Clean your barrel once before you take too many shots Then don't worry about cleaning it much after that....every few 1000's at most

    Yes there are several levels of power upgrades but of course you'll be bound by firearms regs from then on
