No, it doesn't. Dont buy it. You can get a BB for free with the help of Ashley. Look at your map (castle), and look for a small room with a locked door. You need to piggyback Ashley in to the window above the locked door. Once inside you'll find some goodies and the BB; The only normaly acquired weapon in the game more powerful than the BB is the Rocket Launcher. You can unlock newer, insanely powerful super weapons by completing the game and beating the side quests and mini games.
Dont buy a bolt action rifle at this point, pretty soon the SA rifle will become available. Buy the scope for it as well. You will soon face some invincible enemies that can only be killed with the rifle in a special way.
The part of the game you're getting in to can be incredibly difficult if you're ill prepared, enemies that you once faced as bosses will now be normal enemies and some new enemies will appear that, at first, will seem impossible to kill or get around. You will be forced to kill them in most situations because of the cramped hallways, the game has now become a gauntlet and it is very easy to get overwhelmed quickly. Your TMP, even if fully upgraded will become more and more useless as your progress from this point on. It only pisses off most of the island enemies, especially the chaingun assholes who like to ambush you. If you dont want to sell it, use as a tripper and aim for the legs of enemies.
If you hear heavy breathing, protect Ashley and make sure your rifle is equiped with the special device you'll find later. There are two versions of this creature and if they get close to you or Ashley you're dead. It is usually a better idea to run from them. Shooting them with anything (except for the RL) is a waste of time, you will not damage them unless you do it the special way, which is time consuming. Keep your distance.
As far as weapons, every weapon you acquire in the in the game is fully upgradable except for one of the super weapons. Each weapon can also be pushed way beyond it's limits by purchasing the 'Exclusive Upgrade' once you have fully maxed the weapon. The Killer7 has no Exclusive Upgrade. The Punisher, for example, can become as strong as a level 1 shotgun and blast a hole through five enemies at a time, making it a real crowd pleaser and an ARMOR PIERCER, dont forget that.
And yes, you should see some more weapons at the shop pretty soon. I dont know the exact method of how to get particular weapons to become available, but I finished the game 6 times on Pro and each time the weapons became available at different intervals, so I cant help you there.
Also be sure to stock up on grenades, this is the place in the game where they become the most handy, especially on Pro Mode.
And one last thing, in this area, when Ashley is with you, do NOT tell her to stay anywhere and go exploring without her. The game will send enemies to her as soon as you're far away from her.
