Factory clean up rifle?

I just bought a winchester marked 62A on the barrel, but im not sure it is actually a 62A. It has a short, smooth slide handle, and also has a flat hammer spring. Serial number is 68246 w/ no letter. Im really confused as to if this might be a factory parts ckean up rifle or just a frankenchester someone threw together.

What (exactly) is marked on the upper tang behind the hammer? I suspect it is an early Model 1906 frame with a later Model 62A barrel.
