I agree that as emotions & outrage cool down, sales or orders may slow but the snail pace of some shooting sports industry firms may stretch this mess out until 2014 or early 2015.
My big issue is QC will drop from the major gun firms & top end custom shops due to high demands, stressed out workers, lack of materials, etc.
These business owners or staff shouldn't take short cuts or cut corners to make more $$$ from new(unrefined) gun owners/shooters.
