My Bro told me today Federal has suspended employee buys on ammo for the year. The statement said they can't meet demand going forward. That means more. 22LR and not going as often >:(
This may also mean the shelves for this year will look the same all year.
I suspect demand is going to slack off some. I have already noticed the outrageous auction bids are less and less. Another 2-3 months and the panic will be over, and then another couple months for supply lines to stabilize.
I hope.
Someone sent me an email from a gun wholesaler......no link, just a supposed copy.
Expect 9 months on primers and delays on everything else. All production going to 'boxed cartridges'. True? I don't know......
When the demand slacks off, then prices will stabilize some, as stock is back on shelves and those that bought will not be buying more stuff. Law enforcement departments will all need contracts refilled and replinished to meet their needs.
There are many who bought just to gouge (I mean resell) to the panic buying public...
Will we see a major sell off of over bought guns, magazines and ammo in the future, probably! Especially if the gun grabbers get their agends shot down in the process...Hope so! ::)

The grabbers have to fail, which is first and foremost. Then, it's overstock sales and buyer's remorse. I hope I can hold out that long!
I don't know, if stories like this keep surfacing the demand may go up again: http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2013/02/05/16855539-judge-jury-and-executioner-legal-experts-fear-implications-of-white-house-drone-memo?lite
