How about high-strength epoxy? If it will hold the wings on

Not enough contact area would be my first wild guess.

I'd also like to avoid adding any significant material in the break. My
hope is that solder or tig braze will wick into the break and not
greatly change the geometry. Revolvers can be so tricky to get timed
properly & I don't want to make things worse.
