A few things....well quite a few. 
While the Profiteers and Johnny Come Latelys are an irritation - I do believe in and support the free market. Supply & Demand and all. In the long run it is a healthy thing. Wait it out.
Personally I don't think the ban will pass. I think all of what is going on is a positive thing that will pay off in the end for the patient. If it does....I'm already more than well stocked.
I have no problems with a guy who has had some AR's sitting around for years....making a couple (or quite a few) bucks off some knee jerks who are now in a panic buying frenzy. In the back of my mind...if these last minute folks who just have to have an AR now would have gotten one before any mention of bans were being muttered - they would be fine. They waited til what they think is the last moment to get one. Sorry, don't feel too sorry for ya. The jaded prepper in me you know. Plan ahead and rest well. Wait til the last moment or when the enemies are storming the gates - then suffer.
Shame on me for planning a head and if I want, to then sell a spare AR at a healthy profit to the panicked masses? Hell no! Feel sorry for someone waiting til the last moment and then are butt hurt that you have to pay for their procrastination or not thinking ahead. Hell no! Shame on them.
Do you think that most of these last minute buyers will still have their AR 5 years from now if the ban doesn't pass? Sure a few...but most will sell off if/when things settle down.
Just like the Y2K panic buys and then the selloff January 2, of 2000. I made out well. Very well on the 2nd of January... I was well stocked and prepared prior to the whole Y2K panic. Didn't have to buy a thing. Sat back and enjoyed the entertainment/mess of everyone running around with their heads cut off. Made out like a bandit when the lemmings had to pay their credit card bills and dumped all of their new/unused preps that they needed so badly for January 1st....then suddenly had no use for on the 2nd. Knee jerk fools. Their loss - my gain.
I'm doing the same thing now. Let the fools make a run on items and over pay on arms that they didn't seem to need or want a month ago. Let the shelves run empty. Let the manufacturers run into back orders for months....switching to 24/7 shifts to meet the demand. Let the ban not pass (I hope LOL). Let the manufactures catch up. Let the lemmings dump their panic buys at a loss. Let those who plan ahead, those who have appreciated these types of arms (not just last second when they suddenly may not be able to get them) profit in the long run.
In the end this will benefit myself and others who really care about these arms and plan ahead. I will profit in the end with no shame. Let the "investors" and procrastinating last second panic buyers lose. It's a gamble when you wait to the last second. You lose on that gamble? I don't feel sorry for you. I don't gamble. I plan ahead. I don't put off. I don't regret.
