From what I can see, a number of sporrans in the pictures appear to be of military origin. Is it common in Scotland for veterans to wear their sporrans in civilian kit???

Most of the sporrans I have shown are purely civilian.

Most, but not all. I see two Black Watch and possibly one Gordons and an Argyll and Sutherland sporran and some others I can't see clearly enough to identify.

There are two Black Watch sporrans, one worn by the Earl of Caithness. I do not believe any of the others are military, except one worn by Lord Duplin, which is an Atholl Highlanders sporran ( he is an officer ). The one that could be a Gordon sporran might actually be a Seaforth sporran.
