Smith and wesson 929 hammers

Hey every one I'm looking for a place to buy a spare 929 hammer  as I'm looking at playing with one to lighten it up and want a backup in case I mess it all up. Also the ones I found are all MIM and I'm not sure if I would be ok with that or if the cutting and polishing would mess with the structural strength and durability. And on a side note they also say  .500 or. 400.... what does this mean and what and where should I be looking?

 

 Thank you jimmy

I went the route of just replacing the hammer with an Apex hammer.  According to Apex, all non-performance center parts are MIM and performance center revolvers after Jan 2012 are also MIM.

 

I know a local guy who does revolver work.  He has bobbed the MIM hammers before.  

 

The .400 or .500 should refer to the hammer spur width.  If you are bobbing it, it shouldn't matter.
