I can't see any new federal gun laws getting passed. BUT, say they pass some silly huge tax on gun purchases from FFLs. In the states that allow private party sales (which is most of them), that would drive used gun prices up to just below whatever FFLs had to charge for the same used gun, maybe more for the privilege of having it off the books. I doubt a lot of states would comply with any new gun laws, ATF would be overwhelmed and would resort to more selective enforcement as a deterrent, once in a while making examples out of people who didn't know what they were getting into, but not really going after bad guys. Can't see prices going down, despite a huge surge in availability on the used market. I have most of what I'd ever need, so I only look for deals that are too good to pass up.
