Personally I am not so concerned about guns but the ammo situation has got to reach a peak sometime. How much can the average person really afford to buy and then sit on? Are people forgoing other needs for ammo? If for no other reason lack of money will eventually put a stop to the buying, and those who chose to buy from scalpers at inflated prices will be the the first to stop as they most likely made their one and only purchase (realizing how irresponsible it was). The 'invert' has to happen sometime in that those who bought at retail with the intent to scalp cannot afford to hold on to their unsold inventory for long because they probably extended themselves way beyond what they could, and most likely cannot afford to keep it to shoot. Therefore with no one paying their scalping prices, and with the possibility of ammo starting to dribble back in to stores they will have no choice but to sell at what they paid to recoup their investment. This is an old, and historically repeated scenario - short term panic always burns out quickly.
