AR prices are starting to come back down, but backorders are not. If we make it through about May or so with no movement towards legislation, then it is probable more loosening will occur. I expect there will be some ARs for good deal prices in 6 to 8 months.
Ammo and reloading components...it will be a year or more, maybe never, before there is enough stock available.
Many of the major players in the industry are in finanicial limbo due to banking and credit issuance being pulled, much less payment processing. Having to change the way they do business, in some cases have left the LGS having to pay cash for new orders. I expect some small gunstores that sold out and now don't have the credit, clout and cash to buy stock while going 2-6 months moving little or no inventory, will go under. Some of the big companies have been cancelling accounts of small dealers and sending them to distributors, further restricting their profitability.
There are a myriad of ripples to the panic buying.
