The guy working there was telling me about their pandemic protocol.
They open at 9 AM and have customers lining up around 8 AM. They had a line of customers one morning with some kid at the back of the line. BP opened the doors at 9. The kid ran past the line (of older guys) and bounded up the stairs. (Guns, ammo, etc are on the second floor.) The kid grabbed more than the allowable amount and went downstairs to check out. Downstairs apparently doesn't pay attention to "gun stuff" and ammo limits.
The guy explained to me that nobody at the front of the line was able to "run" anywhere, much less, up a flight of stairs. So they complained. So BP initiated some changes.
All their ammo and components (such as it is) has been moved behind the gun case, accessible only to BP employees. There was very little there, of course.
But the shelves where they used to display/market ammo and reloading components aren't there anymore. It's been replaced with generic shooter's accouterments.
Also, BP employees go out and hand out numbered tickets to everybody in line. First guy gets #1, etc. #1 goes in and gets his limit of whatever's available. Then #2, etc.
They didn't even have plastic MTM cartridge cases, which is what I was there for. They did have, however, the long gun socks I needed.
Interesting times.
