Are you asking if the wire is an effective repair? Or if the stock as it is can be salvaged after the wire is removed?
I have seen this form of tie wire and solder used in the past to hold broken stock together. And this one is complete and it is likely doing a good job in holding it together. That along with the metal strap that is installed on the top side under the wire.
As for the stock being saved, that would remain to be seen after the wire is removed. It may not be pretty.
Anyone considering repair of the gun should figure on complete replacement of the stock to be the best way to go.
