Cherry MX Brown now an MX Red-style switch

So I was playing around with a Cherry MX Brown model switch I got for free along with my Ducky keyboard. I finally discovered how to open the model switch and started to fiddle around with the internals. But after I reassemble the switch, the tactile bump dissapeared. As a result, the switch is now a Cherry MX Red with a brown stem.

I'm pretty sure everything is still inside the switch. Anyone got any idea what could cause the switch to turn into another kind?

Ok I think I know why. I possibly bent the contact, which is that brass or gold-plated piece inside the switch that gives that tactile bump. Well that got squashed by the stem after I reassembled the whole switch with the stem facing the wrong way. So that's what caused the switch to have the Red-style feel.

Great, now to get those switches may be a bit difficult.
