Remember when the AR market spiked five years ago? Some fools cornered a bunch of parts and complete guns. Many were still trying to sell that stuff for inflated prices well after the market cratered due to less demand and added production capacity. A hard econ lesson for some.

Certainly. All part of the way it works.

Limits on purchases might not be totally insane in some cases, but the moral outrage at “profiteering” doesn’t sit well with me.

Eggs at $1.25 a dozen: you have one choice: no eggs.
$5.00 (for example): two choices.
