The gougers who went around buying up every round of .22LR they could find in retail stores during the late ammo drought(s) so they could re-sell it at much higher prices;

Rapacious gun dealers who post on their websites that "Remingchester's gonna discontinue the XYZ model, so you better buy the one(s) I have for sale here at my inflated price while you can.";

The Greedy SOBs who jump their asking price on that XYZ model Remingchester $250 as soon as it's discontinued despite the fact that Remingchester is discontinuing that model because no one was buying them at the lower price;

The speculators who buy up discontinued models of guns which they really have no interest in owning aside from their belief that it will appreciated in price over the next 5-10 years; and the peckerheads who write the books and articles that encourage that kind of speculation by claiming what a good investment guns (or anyway, certain models) are.
