Yes, it is Spanish



The date of proof code is R1 = 1973
1350 gms is the barrel weight
I can't see the proof - likely 1000 kg/cm2 for a service load of about 10,500 psi

It was by Industrias Marixa Armas (IMA).

I'm betting since there are only one set of numbers for the bore diameter and they are both the same that the stars indicate the choke. Otherwise the bore diameter would indicate cylinder and cylinder, which I would not think so in a 3" gun.
