The Hammer: The Bottle Opener Made From A Real AR15 Hammer

Gungho Cowboy

We have written about bottle openers that are made to be handy on rifles or beer mugs made from billets used to create firearms before, but here's another bottle opener that any firearm enthusiast or even an airsoft player would like to own. Martin American Designs have put on Kickstarter The Hammer Bottle Opener that is actually made from an AR15 Hammer.

We've seen other firearm parts and bullets used for other purposes, whether ornamental or useful, but this is the first time that the AR15 hammer has been used converted for another purpose, that is opening beer bottles. But before you take your AR15/M4/M16 hammers to open a bottle, please do take note that The Hammer is a converted hammer for the purpose of opening beer bottles. Your existing AR hammer will need to be modded to do the same. But why waste such a good hammer when you can already get a converted one in the form of The Hammer?

Though it seems that the Kickstarter crowdfunding project might not be able to raise the US$15,000 funding goal as it has only been able to raise over US$4,000 with just a week to go. But don't you worry, can still actually purchase The Hammer via the Martin American Designs website. The Kickstarter campaign was put up in order to produce The Hammer faster, in larger quantities, and cheaper if it meets its funding objectives. But if it does not, Martin American Designs would be slower to fulfill orders and it will be more expensive to make.

The Hammer is available in Black Nitride Coating; and Powder-Coated Blue, OD Green and Orange. The first colour is cheaper whilst the powder-coated versions will be more expensive by just a bit.

If you want to own The Hammer, it's best to move quickly and help Martin American Designs raise the funding it requires for it to be affordable and widely available. With just a week to go, and still far from its funding goals, you will need to share the information and convince your mates to pledge too as quickly as you can.
