This is false.

Retailers now see Romney as the certain Republican candidate. As such, the next president, regardless of who it is, will be a proponent and supporter of gun control. The retailers remember fondly the panic buying and rich profits they cashed in on during and after the last election, so they are ginning up people to do it again.

 Surplus 5.56 ammo (and other calibers) is very available right now. However, despite no such gov't program in place to buy it all up,...when the panic finally kicks into high gear, AMMO WILL GET EXPENSIVE AND HARD TO ACQUIRE.
