we already go solid pieces/rods of DU/tungsten for APFSDS rounds and some tanks already can fire ATGMs out from the gun
Edit: forget the last paragraph(was it added in later?) what about something that is a hammer put shaped not like a hammer(alot of reinforcement on the handle to the head, like KSP taught me, more struts)
It was added in later, sorry about that.
Almost like a hollowed bell shape on the handle to the head, the bell being the struts?
If so I'd think it would certainly help absorb shock to the user and handle, but the force of the strike likely wouldn't be enough without that pure transfer of force, a mini piston in the head of the hammer could potentially work with that design in mind, it would keep the power of it high and still keep the shock to the user in check.
Something akin to WH40K's ridiculous Thunder Hammer would likely be the best bet, on contact have it release a burst of heat and energy with a head built to handle the heat, but that would be extremely hazardous to the user without proper protection.
