Perhaps he's just been fortunate to have large Texan balls. Paintballs.

I expect I'm going to have to have metal welded back on before grinding things down; the "point" can't really be milled off because the material below it on the port is already very thin.
Hm, well if you have any paintball machinists local to you, I'm sure they could mill it without cutting too close *coughDukiecough*.

I think using a hand file will take a long time, and a grinder is hard to control since you have to maneuver the snub relative to the grinder (especially with the snub being stainless steel). Also that snub will become hot as **** while you're grinding the spot down, and do you have a variable speed grinder? I've been learning how to work with stainless steel the last 2 months, and it is a bitch to cut, I think the fastest, cleanest and most precise method to achieve your goal is a mill, preferably done by a machinist who does paintball work.
