Has the bottom of that barrel been ground down and reprofiled? Shouldn't it be notched around the ejector rod/knob?

Not my gun, but yes the barrel flat and the notch have been turned off leaving a profile like a Colt Detective snubby.

Yes and yes. The trick is to (have someone that knows what they're doing) drill a hole and place a coil spring and tiny ball inside the crane and peen it over to do what the stock setup does on the ejector rod.
It's been so long since I looked at it that I can't even picture it right now. This snub's been 100% reliable for me.

As promised, the photos I finally took of the detent setup on the 2 1/16" Brazilian. Note the small corresponding dimple on the frame for the ball detent to slide into...
(For some reason they're sideways. That's dumb).
