There are so many different ways this could go it's hard to predict what will happen in this country. IMO, eventually some type of ban or restrictions will be placed on us, especially for AR and AK style rifles but I don't think it will happen this year. Many people think the prices will come back down in a few months but I'm not sure we'll see pre-panic prices for quite a while, if ever.
I think I would concentrate first on getting some equipment to hunt in Alaska. If you happen to come across a good deal on an AR and can afford it, jump on it.
How much hassle and cost would it be to get your gear and weapons from your parents in Ohio to Alaska? That would be worth looking into.
