A 30.07 restricts carrying a firearm by a license holder openly. A magazine holder is no a firearm so no, in my opinion carrying a magazine holder past a 30.07 does not violate penal code 30.07.

I've never really read how the state defines that but it makes sense that an exposed magazine would not be an issue. Probably not smart though, if you are going to remove the firearm, you remove the magazine as well. And whenever I've worn OWB, I always have a cover garment over it unless I'm taking a class that require a tucked in shirt. Another reason why I don't care for "open carry". I'd rather not expose myself to the public and possible risk from either harassment (people making comments about me carrying) or possible theft.

Not clear on the question. Just the magazine itself OWB? Or in conjunction with a firearm?
