Well, I think know for a fact that gun purchasing is WAY up and there was a huge spike right before Obama was sworn in. I think that it has all gone down a bit but it remains higher than usual. Now ammo is another area that has really taken a hit. IMHO a bigger hit than new gun purchases. You cannot find 7.62x39 anywhere and if you do it is twice what it cost in Nov 08. The thing about .30-06 is that it remains a hunting round so you will always get it but it will cost. And for plinking surplus or bulk ammo is much cheaper.

Look at page one and then slip to page 5 and after where the cheaper ammo was sold.

A thousand rounds of 7.62x39 use to be $200, now here it is $499.

Why? Ammunition Accountability Act
