Going under the hammer refers to the auctioneer banging the hammer when an item is sold

A glass hammer would not be useful because glass is brittle and prone to breaking under impact, so it would likely shatter upon use.

How do you uncock a shotgun?

Depends on what your shotgun is. If you have one of the older hammered shotguns (exposed hammer), you can decock them the same way you would any other firearm with an exposed hammer - you gently lower the hammer with your thumb. If you have a shotgun which doesn't have an exposed hammer, your only feasible way of going about this is to empty the magazine, be especially certain to ensure that the chamber is empty, and pull the trigger.
