The "G" stands for "Garda", or Romanian for "Guard". That, in turn, stands for the Patriotic Guard of Romania, which was a national militia of sorts... paramilitary infantry to be used as second-line troops in a war.

The G on the rear sight block. It means the rifle was probably never used for much of anything, was eventually demilled and ended up here as a parts kit where it was rebuilt as a semi-auto weapon. Regular Romanian AIMs that were military issue weapons don't have the G, and generally have about 10x more finish wear.
