Hi Everyone,

I have a Turkish shotgun; yes, I know.

My hammer snapped. I tried to get a replacement, but I had no luck getting one from the manufacturer.

Turns out the CZ 1012 uses the same hammer, although I'm sure it's a better metal grade.

I tried ordering one, but no one gets back to me.

So what should I do? I hate to scrap it because the action is great.

I will add that I put hundreds of high-powered rounds through it before it failed.
 
Yes, forgot to mention it's a Huglu Atrox tactical.

My father-in-law welded the hammer back together; that worked for a while.

Machine shops won't reproduce a hammer.

I'm going to try and source one, but man, is it difficult!

A weld may change the strength and become brittle OR too soft.
How many 'shops' did you try ? And do you know what 'temper' it needs ?
Where did you 'order' the CZ part? Did you Call them ?
 
I actually was thinking about this a lot after the case about the guy 3d printing gun parts.


I don't think a machine shop can legally make a hammer for a firearm without a firearms manufacturing license. That's probably why I personally was turned down by everyone I asked, same as the OP
 
A hammer isn't covered by the firearms act currently. However most don't want either the liability or the amount of time spent on making it (you prepared to pay 400$+ for someone to reverse engineer and make it?). Depending on the hammer shape and design it could be quite a bit of time spent figuring it all out and making it correctly, likely worth more than the gun is in total.
