It is more about sending a message to any place that posts. If we get this one to change their minds the next is less likely to discriminate knowing the whole will stand together.
If the whole stands together. The percentage of gun owners who will actually do something about this is very small. I've been around long enough to tell you that maybe 5-10% of gun owners actually take even the most miniscule action at any point in their lives about 2nd Amendment issues.

From the standpoint of management, active gun owners make up a very small percentage of their clientele, possibly no more than those who would protest a requirement that customers wear shoes. The call center will receive a few calls, most of which will be filled with vitriol and negativity, and management will see no need to change their policy.

A better approach would be to approach someone in the local office directly, and to make our case calmly and with civility. A bunch of folks shouting, "from my cold dead hands you food sucks anyway!" and hanging up isn't going to convince them.
