Any thoughts as to it's value?

There should be a K prefix to a that serial number, though on the gun the letter may be separated from the numerals by several spaces. $300 is a decent price for a shooter grade gun, I believe, provided the action is sound and it passes the usual tests for timing, push-off, end play and so forth. I paid $400 for a high condition Pre-15 about a year ago, and I have seen them go for a little more since then.
It doesn't hurt to offer $250 and see if the seller comes down a bit. A functional combat masterpiece for $300 or less sounds like a good deal.
