I'm using it as a fretting hammer for guitar fingerboards. The plastic heads don.t mar frets and the weight is perfect. If I did want a bit more weight I could switch to one of the included metal heads for the non striking side.

This gunsmithing hammer appears to be well made and the multiple heads make is extremely useful. I have yet to use it, so I cannot comment on its durability which is why I gave it 4 stars based on how well it seems to be made.

I have a couple of firearms that have really sticky takedown pins and this cheap hammer works great (along with brass punches). It stays in my range bag. Only used it a few time but so far I'm happy with it.

I am not a gunsmith, but am an avid shooter and keep my arms in top condition.I needed this hammer for disassembly/reassembly of a Mark III .22.The hammer works like a hammer, but the quality is pretty substandard - finish is cheap, attachments are also substandard - fitment is poor (studs are not centered in the different hammer-heads).While the item did the job, I was pretty disappointed in the overall quality.Can't say I would recommend this brand/item.

Decent build quality with plenty of hammer surface options. Using for guitar building. Do question durability of some head materials and the screw shaft of attachments for long term, but should be good for quite a few jobs. Handle is grippy and comfortable. Overall weight is perfect for my purposes. Considering price, I'm happy with value, quality, comfort and longevity.

I recently bought this hammer to give me a few more options than my other gunsmithing hammer which doesn’t have multiple heads (it is traditional brass head with a wooden handle). The heads on this hammer are easy to swap out and are the right diameter for most gunsmithing work. The polymer, hard rubber and aluminum heads are a certainly a nice addition to brass when you need to make sure you do not mar your firearm (which is easy to do with some firearms due to pin locations like those on ARs).The weight of the hammer varies depending on which heads you have attached. It is about 8.1oz with the brass and aluminum heads, 7.5oz with the brass and polymer heads and about 6.2oz with the rubber and polymer heads attached. It is a little heavy for pistolsmithing work (I generally prefer a 4oz hammer for handguns) but you can get it down to around 5.5oz if you use only the polymer or aluminum head on one side with no head on the other side. If anyone is wondering, the brass head weighs 2.3oz by itself so if you could equip it with two brass heads, you would have a fairly hefty gunsmithing hammer at around 9.7oz.The handle is relatively small diameter but allows for a secure grip as it is textured rubber. Right out of the package, it had fairly noticeable molding seams on the handle but those were easily smoothed out with a small piece of 400 grit sandpaper.If there is anything to complain about, it is the shape of the striking face on the aluminum and brass heads. As you can likely see in the pic, they are very rounded and this tends to make the hammer glance off of punches unless you hit dead center. I will likely chuck the heads in a drill and press them against sandpaper to slightly flatten them at some point. For whatever the reason, the polymer and rubber heads are a more typical, flatter shape.Despite the seams on the handle and the overly rounded strike faces on the brass and aluminum heads (all problems which can be easily fixed), the hammer is still a deal considering it comes with four heads and is very sturdy. For comparison, my traditional brass headed, wooden handled smithing hammer was around $22
