How can I do it?

I found \Lbag and \Rbag in stmaryrd; reflecting a reduced version of them, joining them at the top and adding the bar yields

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{stmaryrd,graphicx}

\makeatletter
\newcommand{\gaA}{} % for safety
\DeclareRobustCommand{\gaA}{\mathpalette\gaA@\relax}
\newcommand{\gaA@}[2]{%
  \vphantom{X}%
  \ooalign{$\m@th#1\relbar$\cr\hidewidth\gaA@@{#1}\hidewidth\cr}%
}
\newcommand{\gaA@@}[1]{%
  \raisebox{\depth}{\scalebox{0.75}[-0.75]{$\m@th#1\Lbag\gaA@kern{#1}\Rbag$}}%
}
\newcommand{\gaA@kern}[1]{%
  \ifx#1\displaystyle \mkern-2.2mu \else
  \ifx#1\textstyle \mkern-2.2mu \else
  \ifx#1\scriptstyle \mkern-2.6mu \else
  \mkern-3.3mu \fi\fi\fi
}
\makeatother
