The story is was follows

Hi Andrew,
Thank you for contacting Hasbro, Inc. We are pleased to be able to respond.

The drive shaft/long barrel was removed so the accessory would not look like a weapon.

We want to assure you that we are dedicated to maintaining quality products and service. We hope you and your family will continue to enjoy our products for many years to come.

Again, thank you for contacting us.
