High Wood Stock Value

[Singer B]

I went to pick up the Inland today and was informed that despite having a C&R FFL and California COE, I still had to wait the 10 days since the gun is a consignment sale. Ridiculous. If I could leave California I would. On an interesting note, during the 1.5 hours I was there, they sold over 40 guns, many to first time buyers (which was pretty obvious). I will pick the Inland up and load pictures on April 4th or 5th.

Finally picked it up today (went on Saturday but the State of California had a computer glitch that delayed everyone getting their firearms for at least 1 day past the 10 day limit). It appears to have many original parts but also some mixmaster parts (top handguard marked S-HB, Standard Products op rod, type 2 dogleg hammer). Other than that, all parts match what should be there. My main question is the stock. I don't want to mess it up. Can anyone advise if they believe it has been refinished? The overall gun appears to be in really good shape.

Also, the rear sight is adjustable but it doesn't appear to fit in the dovetail slot correctly (the base of the sight extends past the edges of the receiver base). The "oiler" is a piece of plastic and the last owner installed the sling incorrectly. I look forward to your recommendations and advice. Thank you!
