Local gun dealer is a friend.

He says that black rifles are starting to become available again, at lower prices.

Mags are still in short supply.

Small pistols continue to be in high demand as well.

All ammo is short, no fix before six months, even if demand returned to normal, as the entire distribution chain is cleaned out.

Reloading components like primers and powder are scarce, bullets are even worse.

Pending legislation will continue to adversely affect the market and create artifically high demand until it goes away.

Sorry for the bad news, but it might be getting better, instead of worse.
