It's started happening around here as well. The two LGSs I tend to frequent have both had a few models of ARs hit the shelves, and stay there, at least for a reasonable amount of time. When the panic was at its height they would have been gone as fast as people could say "me, me!". Now they don't have a huge variety, generally 2-3 models at most, but the point is the things aren't literally flying off the shelves anymore. Neither is the ammo, when they actually get it in. It sells out because so far they aren't getting in great quantities, but like the ARs it isn't flying out the door.

Shoot, my favorite has had Pmags for DAYS now, whereas before they'd have been gone in minutes.
