Gun stays off the market.
Random code dealer finds a codename. "I'll sell this."
Gun goes on to the market.
Prices will rise because there are less guns on the market.
Actually....
Random guy who's been wanting to find a codename to use. "Oh look, finally found the gun I was after."
Guy gets what he wanted, without having to go buy it from a dealer. Decreases demand of the codename.
Random code dealer finds a codename. "Another code to sell, now I just gotta find someone who wants it, that isn't going to just camp this wreck."
Dealer finds a gun he has problems selling because of other people just looting the wreck. Increases the supply of the codename.
Supply is higher than demand, which means the prices go down. Basic economic law of supply and demand.
