OK, so I guy walks into the theater carrying a gas mask, a Remington 870, an AR-15 and a sidearm and wearing protective gear.
How is it possible that nobody noticed this?
If he was carrying the stuff in a bag, it had to be a BIG bag.
So why didn’t anybody ask, “Hey, pal, what’s in the bag?”
He frist brought a ticket went up front and went out the E exit and left it open.
Armored and gunned up came back in the E exit and started shooting.
Some reports have him pulling a variant of the old ‘let your friends into ye theatre for free” trick - open and block one of the emergency/service exits near the screen from closing and locking so your friends can get in. Instead of letting people trying into the theatre for free, he went out to the parking lot, geared up and came back through his rigged door himself.

Because he didn’t have all the stuff with him when he purchased the ticket. He went out the exit door, propped it open, to return with everything he used.
