- For the search to work, please enter your serial number in all UPPERCASE letters and numbers with no spaces between the characters. Be certain to not confuse numeric and alphabetic characters, such as O's for zeros or we will be unable to locate your serial number. Only enter the serial number and no additional information. Do not insert spaces.
- The serial numbers on these guns will also have the letter 'G,' followed by a number between 85,001 and 99,000. To find the date, look at the number just before the letter G. The number represents the last digit in the year (only from 1958 through 1967) it was manufactured.

[EDITED in an attempt to tidy this up and summarise what I now want to know.]
Sometimes doing this online can be a wild goose chase of sorts (don’t ask me how I know) there are a lot of important and specific details that simply can’t be accurately determined online without a heavy knowledge base. Crosman Product Dates of Manufacture. This page will help you ascertain when your Crosman gun was in production. In the year 1975 Crosman Corporation began to use a serial number system that can help you identify when your gun was made. Prior to 1975 our serial number system was limited only to warranty concerns.
I want to extract the identification for the display installed in my laptop (in order to identify the correct ICC profile from an archive downloaded from Lenovo as explained at http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Colour_profile).
get-edid fails to extract anything useful. However, using the EDID block from xrandr's output and the online EDID extractor at http://www.edidreader.com/, I got something which at least appears meaningful:
Colt Ar15 Serial Lookup
Header Information
---------------------------
Valid Checksum: TRUE
EDID Header: OK
EISA ID: AUO
Product Code: 226D
Serial Number: 0
Manufacture Date: 52/2015
EDID Version: 1.4
Dpms Manufacture Date
Number of Extensions: 0
Checksum: 0xA8
Dpms Serial Number Manufacture Dates
However, neither AUO nor 226D appear anywhere in the INF file provided to match EISAs with profiles. The EISAs in that file all start LEN or IBM and are then followed by four additional letters/numbers.

The archive of profiles I downloaded (r0dmi04w.exe) was obtained from the list of downloads for my machine, so it should contain something relevant. I extracted the files with innoextract.
The ThinkWiki instructions suggestion using monitor-edid, but that appears to be no longer available or maintained. Moreover, I can't figure out the correct profile by a process of elimination (as also suggested there), because information about my display dimensions, resolution and type does not discriminate between cases paired with different hardware.
How can I identify the correct profile for my machine?
Here's the output from get-edid using the comment at https://unix.stackexchange.com/question … 171_323121:
However, I am not getting a neat identifier as I'm meant to, so I must still be doing something wrong:
The identifier and model name are not actually empty - the characters look like those you see when the terminal doesn't know what to do with some strange unicode character or is trying to use the wrong encoding to display the file. (I'm not saying that's what it is - just that 'what the hell is this?' symbols display rather than nothing, as it looks here.)
I'm rather confused by the fact that parse-edid returns as the vendor what the online tool returns as the EISA.
