nice crossbow
The crossbow itself is a nice little crossbow but the bolts desentagreated on contact when it hit a tree.

Lots of power
This mini crossbow has some real power. It cocks easily and shoots so hard that my bolts disappear into my target block most of the time. The sights it comes with are useless and frail. Don’t expect them to hold a zero or last very long. I put a micro red dot on mine (the crossbow has a pic rail) and now it’s very accurate at up to 60 feet. With a red dot this crossbow is a legitimate self defense tool or small game killer for distances up to 20 yards.

Nice crossbow, but NO instructions!
It is pretty cool for a mini crossbow, but there were absolutely NO instructions in the box- I had to go to YouTube to find out how to thread it(no easy task). Otherwise, it is a good little crossbow, though I wish they’d made it out of a metal material, like aluminum, or steel.

Great lil crossbow
Cool lil crossbow especially if you ain’t got 200 or 300 plus to spend on a better one. I don’t know what it’s hunting capabilities or limits out in the field are or anything. I got it to just have fun with.. at first didn’t know how it went together because I’ve never assembled a crossbow before but it was pretty simple without any directions.. again its not a expensive crossbow!! and I could assemble this m48 hell hawk again and again now with no problems... so yeah I recommend anyone to get it just to have fun with it..

I got mines today no problems
This will be my private collection not for heavy use. I just got in today and took a week and half to get here. Arrived in one piece. I hope they can make a metal version the of M48 one day that could been a lot better. Don't over use the bow or it'll break. You can always send it back for an exchange or refund. This will be my 7th pistol crossbow that I got. I don't need instructions I already know to assemble the bow and I know how to string the limb with no help at all. This is a great way to enjoy quarantine and social distancing, have some target practice once in a while. Budk will continue taking and shipping orders during these dark times. Get your crossbows today and get what you need that way you don't get board at home. Times have changed. I'm truly satisfied with my purchase once again and a proud costumer of Budk. No complaints here. I will always buy from Budk thanks again.

Great buy
I bought this for my stepson. He is 6'7" 335 lbs and plays football on scholarship, so this looked like a mini toy in his hands. He too had trouble stringing it, until I showed him to slide the bow all the way to one end on the rail. That gives you way more leverage to bend the bow. Once he saw that it was like putty in his hands. I could do it fine myself but I'm only 6'2" 220 lbs. Leverage helps guys. That said, this lil sucker sinks bolts deep into our arrow target. Sometimes too deep. And I'm hitting bullseyes at 25' consistently. It's a lot of fun, but hard to find the little bolts in the hillside where we'd shoot. I suggest high visibility colored bolts. Rabbits and squirrels don't stand a chance against this thing! Way fun!

M48 Hell Hawk
This is my first crossbow and I am happy with the purchase. It hits hard and is accurate. I love the ease of self-cocking mechanism. One draw back, the plastic tang that releases the cocking mechanism broke after a dozen uses. I made another with some 1/4 plate steel. This was an issue in other reviews. If you don't have tools and know-how, you might have short use of this crossbow.

NEEDS INSTRUCTIONS AND STRINGING AID
This is the 1st crossbow of any type that we have purchased and its for my wife to have some fun with. That said it was left to me to assemble it. There were no instructions in the box or on the box and I had to go to youtube to find out how you cocked it and read on this site how hard it was to string. That part took locking it down it a vise and using all my 300 lbs to get it done. But, here is the stupid part. Once it was assembled and strung, I cocked it and tried to pull the trigger it wouldn't budge. It doesn't have a safety so it took some serious looking and head scratching to find THE LITTLE PIN THAT WENT THRU THE FRAME AND THRU THE HAMMER. EVIDENTLY ITS THERE FOR SOME REASON BUT I CAN'T THINK OF WHY. Anyway I managed to get it out with a drift punch and now it cocks and shoots like it is supposed to. Please advise the manf. to put decent instructions in with these.

It's a good crossbow
I recently bought this crossbow and so good so far and the only downside was stringing the prod. It didn't come with a stringing aid and I found it requires 4 sets of arms to bend the limbs and another set of hands to string it. So 3 you'll need 4 strong armed guys and a someone to put on the string, but once you got it strung its a reliable crossbow.

Good first crossbow experience
I've never owned a crossbow before because the pistol versions handled and felt like toys, while the high powered and hunting styles were slow. This one caught my attention immediately when it debuted BudK and I knew I this was what I was looking for. I received it just today and have fired a dozen bolts through it and sighted it at 10 yards. Consistent flight and power provided a tight grouping, which was also aided by the adjustable stock and sights. The Hell Hawks grip contours smoothly in the firing hand and the foregrip helps give this weapon great stability. The cocking action is extremely smooth and almost effortless considering the draw weight. Extremely happy with the purchase
TL;DR: This thing is a beast

Dogshit
Terrible purchase for anyone. First and foremost, you need to buy a stringing aid and it does not come with instructions.
Second, within one hour of shooting the crossbow broke and was no longer functional. Will not be buying another crossbow from BudK's M48 line.
