I think there are many issues at play here in addition to the saturation point. One could easily be fact that many are using funds other than wages to live on with employment so far down leaving less for firearms. Another could be fact that more people have arms today, those who care to have them, then who feel they don’t want them. Lack of ammo may be another, why buy a firearm when you cannot get ammo at a reasonable price for it could be a concern. Lastly, in some states, mostly California and the Northeast, laws are such to dissuade the purchase of firearms and the places to shoot them are less than they were before.

Personally I’ve been thinking of picking up a 25-06 but decided against it due to the my cash balances, ammo availability, and the closest range is 50 miles away.
