Nick, Those are patent dates. Are you sure of the day? Should be July 13'86 and Oct.5'86. The only other one that I know of is Mar.29,'83. The first two patent dates refer to hammerless guns- safety, the last one Mar.29'83 refers to the joint check.
Interesting that your gun of 1928 would still have patent dates on them as they are only good for 17 years.
