...not worth much at all. Maybe 150-250 max. You'd need stock , handguard, handguard ring, upper swivel and band and screw , it's holding spring , stacking swivel and band and screw , nose cap ( bayo lug ) and it's screw. All this new metal would need to match the color and wear of the buttplate , triggerguard , etc. , and the buttplate may need to be fited to the new stock, etc. , etc. After all these parts and work , you'd have a rifle worth 500 or so.

emmagee is right - $250 max. Even if the guy sold it for 250, your gonna be well into 200 gathering all the parts. You'd be lucky to get $20 for your cut stock. Sometimes you see a complete stock set w/handguard and all metal on auction, but you might be better off to keep looking. JMHO
Although I don't feel as neagtive as the others about restoring a cut-down rifle, $500-550 is about double what it is worth. If all the parts were the correct kind and finish, I might go as much as $300-350, but $500-550 is way too much.
The stock is a cut-down military stock - nothing more, nothing less.
Thank you very much for yall advice. I wasn't really looking for one of these when it came up. I probably will be looking around for one now. Very cool rifle. I will tell him what yall have said and tell him I pass.
until next time
It really comes down to price. If you can get it for under $200.00 go for it. Then putting it back right is reasonable. Good luck.
And to be correct, the safety shroud would also need to be replaced. It is SC. Bolt is parked as well. This is a sporterized, reworked rifle with mixed parts.
