I think this present panic is lasting longer because of the politics involved. There is consistent anti 2A talk from a variety of democrat politicians, not just POTUS. There also are the anti-2A organizations who get media time and various state and federal court decisions that are being made. All of this keeps fanning the flames of hoarding.
I know from my previous firearms safety training, as an instructor, we frequently had dud .22lr ammo for the kids to
use. Why I bring this up is that all the hoarders will eventually discover their precious stash doesn't fire.
