What kind of spring is used?  All this time, I thought just flicking the black
piece of the cannon made it fire!

This is one of the disabled cannons - they can be modified to shoot with the
addition of a spring (some disassembly required).  They were later replaced by
the one-piece non-firing cannon.

(...) Nope, there's a spring inside. Someone here did modify non-shooting cannon (the disabled variety, not the one-piece mould variety, naturally) to fire with a cut-down spring from a retractible ball-point pen. It's roughly the same diameter. (...) (24 years ago, 15-Oct-00, to lugnet.pirates)
