Only one end of that pin (the correct end) can be inserted into the spring. The other end is too fat. Isn't that what keeps people from installing it backwards... the fact that you can't?

Tikka may have fixed the post making it “fatter” to prevent it being installed backwards. I know it’s easy to do, or at least it used to be, with a light trigger spring.
