First look at the new TANDEMKROSS “Thunder” Hammer for the S&W Victory 22!
TANDEMKROSS (TK) has just announced the exciting release of their new “Thunder” hammer, and SpotterUp was lucky enough to get a sneak peek!
Right out of the box, you can tell that TK has spent time ensuring this hammer is a quality part.
The “Thunder” is precision-machined from hardened S7 tool steel and fits perfect as a drop-in replacement installation.
TK always offers great product information and installation instructions which make any of their products a simple install.
TANDEMKROSS states the finish is a diamond-like coating for impact and heat resistance. The hammer also features an upgraded, dog-bone style strut pin.
There are three pieces, with a strut pin being held in place with pressure. My experience with TANDEMKROSS parts is that TK delivers on reliability.
I’ve had the “Thunder” hammer installed for a few days now and can genuinely say I can feel the difference. Most noticeable is the lighter trigger pull under 2lbs!
TK produced a video showing the change in pull weight as well as documentation on pull-weight testing.
Pull weight testing:
– Stock hammer & stock trigger = ~ 4lbs 13.8 oz
– “Thunder” hammer % stock trigger = ~ 4 lbs 1.4 oz
– Stock hammer & “Victory” trigger = 2lbs 13.3 oz
– Thunder Hammer & “Victory” Trigger = ~1lb 14.3oz
The key benefits of the hammer are:
- Lighter weight for improved performance
- Reduces trigger pull weight and lock time
- Precision machined from hardened S7 tool steel for long-lasting durability
..and of course being made in the USA with a lifetime warranty makes it an easier decision!
In a nut shell, the TK “Thunder” hammer is a quality component which I’ll easily call an improvement over the factory hammer.
I look forward to shooting with this a many competitions to come!
