This looks like a forgery. A pretty good forgery, but nonetheless...
The receiver markings are incorrect for the '62 G3's, as there should be an 'MK' designator preceding the serial number.
Also, a July gun would be exceedingly rare, as all I've seen were from March or September. Perhaps I haven't seen them all, yet.
The trigger housing may be correctly done, (no Pasadena mention) but the deactivated sear lever is missing. It appears to have many more miles on it than the rest of the rifle.
My guess is it is a remarked offshore early G3, with an original trigger housing set free from a registered NFA conversion some time in the past.
