Well there were shortages in 08 after Obama got elected and following Sandy Hook. It's definitely possible but I doubt it would get to sandy hook levels.

Depends on the caliber. 22 and 5.56/223 sure but 7mm rem mag, 270, 243 etc will still be around.

Reloading components are getting hard to find for certain calibers. I cant find brass for 270wsm and federal primers have been unicorns. Powder is available for now though.

Not saying it would or wouldn't, but the scenarios that are getting tossed around range from:
(a) Hildebeast gets elected, starts a series of executive orders and (of course) names a super-liberal to the Supreme Court .....to

(b) The Dems win the White House and also re-take control of the House & Senate.

Some of this is purely a political discussion that probably gets debated all over the PT board. But the impact on gun owners if (a) or (b) happens is what's generating the "panic buying" discussions/forecasts on some of the gun forums.
