Steel Argentine Bit with Silver #A1
Original price was: $392.00.$292.00Current price is: $292.00.Description: The Steel Argentine Bit #A1 has 6 1/4 inch shanks. It’s made of high grade 4130 steel and overlaid with beautiful hand engraved nickel silver. Five steel mouthpieces are available (see picture). All are 5 1/8 inches wide and have inlaid copper strips to promote salivation except #42. Mouthpiece diameters are listed in the picture and dropdown.
Purpose: This is a nice mild shank and a good one to continue training with once your horse has advanced from the snaffle. It can often be used when a horse is having trouble or is resistant in a longer shanked bit and needs to come back to a milder bit with slower action for a time. This bit works well on many horses and is a great choice if you want one handy all-around bit in the tack room.
This bit comes with #BH51 Latigo Leather Bit Hobble with hand braided rawhide keepers. Shown here with #BH41 Latigo Bit Hobble.
Shown with mouthpiece #2B.

Offset D Ring Snaffle Bit #19
$150.00Description: The D rings on this Offset D Ring Snaffle Bit are made of 1/4 inch steel and are 2 1/4 inches in diameter. Mouthpiece #9 is 3/8 inch in diameter and 5 1/8th inches wide with inlaid copper bars to promote salivation. Mouthpiece #42 is 3/16 inch in diameter and 5 /8 inches wide with a gentle twist.
How it works: Because the D rings on this snaffle don’t slide and the area of contact on the mouth is wider than on a ring snaffle this bit gives a stronger, quicker signal than a ring snaffle. The contact on the face from the Ds also helps the horse bring the opposite side of his face through a turn. This is a great bit to ride your colts in.
Although you should always check with show management, this snaffle with mouthpiece #9 is legal in AQHA & NRCHA snaffle bit classes.

Eggbutt Snaffle Bit #18
$150.00Description: The Eggbutt Snaffle Bit #18 is made of Stainless Steel. The mouthpiece is 5 1/8 inches wide, slightly bowed and has inlaid copper strips to increase salivation. It is 3/8th inch in diameter at the corners of the mouth and gradually tapers to 1/4 inch in the center.
How it works: When each rein is pulled the eggbutt snaffle bit will give a clearer signal than a ring snaffle because there is a larger area of contact on the corner of the mouth and contact on the opposite side of the face. This helps the colt to bring his whole face through the turn rather than just his nose. This bit is NRCHA & AQHA legal.
This is my favorite snaffle and I use it on almost all my young horses. Dennis
Shown on the horse in addition to the Eggbutt Snaffle is the #HS34 Doubled and Stitched Browband Headstall, the #CU31 Single Buckle Leather Curb and the #BLL2 Latigo on Latigo 5/8″ Heavy Reins.
