Has the safety lever been modified? Shortened?

I would post pictures without the leather pad on it. Condition is everything.

Has the safety lever been modified? Shortened? That is the factory safety lever for transition rifles - the model 70's prior to this had a flag style and the ones afterwards had a lower profile safety with a round knob on the end.

If the stock is in good condition, you might be underpriced. If it isn't, you might be over-priced.
I prefer classic. Semper Fi I used to run with the hare. Now I'm envious of the tortoise and I do my own stunts but rarely intentionally

Sounds like general consensus is that the leather pad needs to go - I'll cut it off tonight and will post some pictures if that helps.

I am always looking for factory wood stocks!

I still can't tell from your pictures but does the "dogs ear" notch in the top of the stock still remain for the original butt plate? Maybe a better way to ask is has the stock been cut or just the pad added?
