the gas cylinder will also be either welded or screwed and glued to the front band.
If you've ever handled a standard you'll be able to tell a major difference in the stock, it'll seem massive compared to standard.
You should also be able to see evidence of bedding if you pop out the trigger group, carefully, of course. As long as you don't act like a gorilla when you're removing the actin from the stock you won't hurt anything.
The seller should understand you wish to inspect if you are shelling out a premium for it.
If he won't let you fully inspect the rifle I would walk away.
This does sounds a tad bit fishy, but one never knows.
