Yes, prices will most likely reflect the political situation. Too many bought using CC and will look to recoup some capital.
Some will still try to gouge pricing only because they got jacked. Look at the EE, mags and lowers are free flowing again. |

Mags can and will get cheaper. They are very cheap to make, and the R&D and tooling has been long paid for, even on more recent offerings like Pmag and Lancer.
Magazines are by design inexpensive, disposable items. Sure, they're not going to be free, and they will always be more than a couple bucks (except maybe surplus...), but there is plenty of room even at these prices. Even if they go from $10.00 to $8.00, or $7.00 to $5.00, that's still a 20%-30% savings which is tremendous if you're really serious about buying magazines. |

Just remember that most everyone bought inventory at PRE election prices. That inventory is still on shelves needing to be sold at some profit. The super cheap stuff may not hit until after the new year. Cheap PMAGS (below $10) are already available on sales if you're looking.

I thought there would be a crash in the guns/ammo/mags market but I did not count on the 'snowflake rebellion' which could still influence a few to buy. Honestly, I don't know who's left to buy guns now or where they would find room for any more. Its been going on since 1992, off and on, and I think most people have too many already. So, within a year I think its going to be a very flat market.

So, within a year I think its going to be a very flat market. Maybe true. This past year I pretty much focused on things that would be banned (mags, ARs) and bought middle of the road vendors so I could get greater quantity. But this next year, while I won't be spending quite as much, I will focus higher end guns, optics (which I didn't buy any this year), training, body armor, etc. If the HPA passes we will probably see very large demand for suppressors. |

Like it or not, there will be many vendors and likely many manufacturers that do go out of business due to the drop in demand. The previously high demand and high margins meant that you didn't have to run a really tight ship to turn a profit. Many of these dealers and websites were recent startups and just squeezing by to make payroll. When the price and the volume ticks down, even slightly, the poorly-run or just-getting-by shops will be the first to go. On the other side of the coin, the well run businesses with good products and service will continue to thrive in spite of this, and perhaps pick up a bigger market share. But this is like any business and any market.
Looking down from the mountaintop on the past decade or so, we're truly going to be in a goldilocks zone of tons of quality product to choose from, but at the same time businesses having to really compete for your money. If we hadn't had to endure the AWB and then the past 8 years of hostile administration, things like mags would have stayed super cheap and there wouldn't have been enough margin for a Magpul or a Lancer or someone else to take a risk on developing and marketing and continuing to improve the quality products that they have today. Consumer enthusiasm is at an all-time high, selection is at an all-time high, and it appears to only be getting better. |
