Each and every one of these companies is in the business of making money. They are selling a product in high demand. They'll be making more for us to buy!

There are many other distributors that sell their products such as Midway, Grafs, Midsouth etc...

So we know that...

There is a LOT OF MONEY in the firearms trade...

We also know that The NRA is pretty big...

The NRA and the firearms industry has some very powerful lobbying groups...

Many politicians lost their offices in elections after the first 'assualt weapons ban'....

Politicians are whores...

Politicians want to stay in office, no matter what...

Politicians can be bought (they're whores (sorry to associate politicians with you whores out there))...

Where is the money i banning weapons? There is almost no money to be made by banning weapons is there? So, I ask, how are the people who want to ban fire arms going to BUY THEIR POLITICAL INFLUENCE?

Politicians have 'advisors' to help them stay elected and they can look back at the history of what happens to politicians in most states in this nation who supported the previous 'assault weapons ban'...

The Advisors will tell the politicians to "fight the ban". That way, they'll reason, we'll have more money for re-election...

And...

What goes up, must come down...

REMEBER HOW PEOPLE WERE DRIVING UP THE PRICES OF HOUSES BACK IN 2004, 2005 AND 2006...

Everyone then thought I "got to buy me a house now!"

In 2012, the housing market is way lower, in fact, it is in pre 2004 prices BECAUSE OF OVERSUPPLY...

A lot of people don't want a house anymore...

Remember: "What goes up, must go down"...

Also...

Gun owners are just paranoid by nature...

Gun purchases will get moved up. We arn't going to wait, in other words. We're going to buy that AR now!

A spike in demand causes a spike in prices...

The manufacturers will ramp up production to meet demand...

Everybody and their brother who is even close to making AR receivers is sitting around a coffee table, a kitchen table or the boardroom table saying to each other HOW CAN WE MAKE MORE AR RECEIVERS?????

Supply will thin out over the next copule of months...

The buyers willing to pay $1,500 will get a hold of their rifles...

The smaller poplulation of buyers willing to pay $2,000 will get a hold of their rifles...

We'll start getting pretty thin on empty hands that can hold a rifle cause almost everyone who can pay for one, got one...

The one guy willing to pay $2,500 will get a hold of his rifle from one of the guys who paid $2,000 for his and got found out by his Wife...

They're be no more buyers of ARs...

ARS will be available on line again...

ARS will be in the stores again...

Dealers will get sick of all these stinking ARS around...

Joe Sixpack will start missing payments on his credit card, he'll sell his AR at a loss of hundreds of dollars...

The heavier tax burden we all face will cause people to see other firearms at a loss so they can buy groceries to feed their families...

"Wait, I don't get a tax refund this year? How am I going to pay for that trip to Disney Land?" Then they Wife will pressure them to sell that AR they could not afford in the first place...

Fire arm prices will plunge even more as the large population of Baby Boomers continues to pass away and their heirs receive Grand Dads old firearm collection with minty S&W revolvers and deer rifles. The heirs will sell the collection off cause they don't like guns...

The other guns that have been in short supply will be overflowing in gun dealer's show cases...

The supply of choices for firearms, other than ARs, will contine to swell...

Meanwhile in Washington...

Politicians will bicker... isn't that all they do anyway? What have they got done the last four years?...

Nancy Pelosi will continue to ask for the moon, that's what you do when you enter a negotion. You ask for the moon and hope to get something close...

The Republicans know they got the voters mad already...

The Republicans just need to stone wall a while, or ask for the moon in return...

Democrats and Republicans, or "the whores", will come out with some kind of watered down bill cause they got to do something that is the least painful (will cost them the fewest votes)...

The public gets enamoured with some new female pop star, a wierd foreign singer or some new way to get high legally and forgets about, what was that shooting massacre again...

Life goes on...

I go and buy an AR for less than I can get it today because there are so many for sale and people are too broke to afford them.

Thats what I think!
 
Your post seems to be well thought out and very solid, just as long as money plays the major roll in everything. On the flip side is the thought that Money has nothing to do with any of this and it's more about control and power over a free nation.

It would be very dangerous to discount the value that some place on power and control. Not all of these people are politicians, they are the ones that are pulling the strings of the politicians and if one gets voted out there are 100 more willing to take their place.

You can feel free to place the foil hat here_____ if you like, but before you do you might want to visit some of the nations that this same thing has happened or is happening now like I have. Power and control trumps money any day because money comes automatically with the other two, but not the opposite.
 
Well said my friend I feel the same way. Only time will tell, if we are right we are going to reap the benefits just like in '08. If we are wrong then I for one will be astonished, but I will also be ok. The only way this is going to happen is through executive order. And if it gets that bad we are in more trouble than any of us could conceive. I just wish we could take all the what if.... Threads and group them all together so that I can ignore all of them. Why can't we collectively agree that until we have official word from Washington that there is in fact an assault weapons ban in place. That nobody posts anything in speculation of what might happen. And nobody posts another ad for a pmag. It's getting ridiculous guys give it a rest for a few days.
