Yeah, so someone will try to fill the gap. That's how markets work. Even in the short term, though, being unable to come up with enough ammo so that your officers can remain proficient (and maybe even legally qualified to do their jobs) is more than a little hassle.
How many rounds is the average officer required use in training to qualify to do their job in America. Do they have to do firearms training courses once a month once a year to stay firearms qualified. As for being proficient some can shoot all the rounds they want and still not be proficient with firearms.

There's a reason I used the phrase "enough manufacturers."
Possibly but that won't happen IMO. As only time will tell we will have to come back to that one.

I would assume that companies supplying ammo etc to government agencies would have binding contracts. I would doubt that any would be willing to except the legal and financial consensuses of not fulfilling the contracts.
