Cutting a notch from an existing hammer won't work, because sear won't catch it. A little bit steel has to be added to the hammer to make the profile bigger at appropiate position and then mill a new notch on it. Or making a new customized hammer from scratch.

But that's technical. Since the problem that you are facing is political -- did they say that they would accept this "solution"?
