Magazines; Concealed?

[Blackdeek2006]

Hey everyone,

I did a few searches and maybe i'm just not typing the correct words to find what i'm looking for but here it is:

Obviously your handgun must be concealed at all times, that's a given, but what about your extra magazines? Most, if not all, of the magazine pouches i've seen for belts are OWB. So even if a use a IWB tuckable for my firearm, the mags would still be plainly visible.

Are magazines required to be concealed by law and if so, how do you all address that issue?

Thanks everyone.

There is no requirement to conceal a handgun or magazine "by law" in MA.

Of course not doing the former will probably cause you unwanted
attention possibly leading to bad things happening. (covered in numerous
threads in this section of the forum, so I'm not going to get into it... )

IMO in some cases with a single pouch you could probably get away with
it, if the snap top covers the magazine. One of the single mag 1911
pouches I have looks very similar to a leatherman pouch. I've also seen
cases where guys would just buy a leatherman pouch and put a mag
inside of it instead of the tool.

I think Milt Sparks and a few other companies make "IWB" mag pouches as
well, which makes more sense with an IWB holster.

You have lead a sheltered life

A little camera case would probably work. It might be a bit odd if you never carry a camera though.
