I would let the customer complain about this noise and then explain
to him why it is hitting the flange of rep end.

If he insists on a short hammer blow then he has to live with the
consequences.

Don't make more work for yourself when it is not appreciated
or deemed necessary.  Wait till a few of his friends play it and
start to give him feed-back, maybe he'll see the light.
