This is probably an armory upgrade with GI parts.  I don't remember  for sure where the maker is marked as I am out of the country and can't get my hands on my Garands, but who made it should be right near the date that you see on the barrel.

It's very common for WW2 rifles to have post Korean War barrels. They went through arsenal rebuilds several times.
