Putting the gun in the milk crates?
In the opening scene, what was the point of this? Disarming himself before entering an environment he is clearly skeptical of, doesn’t make sense to me, what are your thoughts?

I took it as preparation - he figured he might get frisked, so he ditched his gun. He also might have to run, so he placed it near an exit but not in plain view.
To see how it might've played out in a John Woo film, check out this clip from "A Better Tomorrow":

TLDR(eview video)? Chow Yun Fat's character places guns in planters along his escape route, so he doesn't have to reload as he retreats.
And I'm too lazy to look it up, but didn't John Wick do something similar in his second film?
Good points and appreciate the Chow Yun Fat clip!
shareI seem to recall in John Wick 2 he stashed his shotgun and speedloader gear and his AR I guess in the catacombs.
