The modern 17 digit serial numbers are arranged in a specific sequence with the first three characters identifying the manufacturer. The next 6 digits will identify the model, trim level and engine. The following letter or number is the year, then the production plant. The last 6 digits are unique to that vehicle. Any dealer of that brand of vehicle could tell you what each digit means. If the vehicle was produced before the 17 digit system, you have to find out how that specific manufacturer arranged their serial numbers.
You can't. Almost every make and model that was serialized started with number 1 and was incremented sequentially.
The model number of the gun and make along with the serial number usually will determine the age of a gun.
It is impossible to tell the make and model from just a serial number.
