Okay, here is a picture of the ChronoBarrel battery cover snapped from Coop772's review video ->

<- And here we have the battery cover of the Chronobarrel I picked up at a thrift store, which came with the box but no darts.

Question:

What

The

?!?

Did someone "mod" the battery cover to move the spring to the wrong side?? How is that even possible? I can't seem to get the thing apart, but it looks like it's "keyed" expressly to PREVENT that from happening!

It seemed more likely that someone had miswired the back side of the battery box during the course of resoldering some broken wires... but no, those match what I'm seeing in review videos. And no, the battery box isn't upside-down, because the nut-hole that the battery cover screw threads into is molded right into that.
