Edgar and Brian are most likely the winners in this guess-a-thon. The rusted location and then the darker areas and the the lighter areas show the progression of the failure. High stress induced fatigue failures usually present this way. (another guess is that the 30 inchers were dropped on the dolls head) It would be my guess that the screw was the last thing holding this all together and finally gave up the ghost to the ejector springs.

A two long barrel set should be fixed and I'm sure that there are Parkersmiths that can do this work. As we say in engineering: problems can be solved, all it takes is time and money.
