Some folks are hoarding it for themselves; some are buying it up for resale at gunshows and making a profit. The ARs in 556 and 762 have been sold out for quite a while. The next step for someone who just has to have one is to buy it in the 22lr version. I'm 40 north of Godfrey and it is no different here. No one can say when they get restocked with ammunition and when they do, well, you better be standing right there in the isle. Expect it to stay this way for another 45-60 days.
