Steel C Shank Bit with Silver #A4
Price range: $451.00 through $566.00Description: The bit has “Buster Welch” style 6 1/2 inch shanks made of high quality 4130 grade steel and overlaid with beautiful hand engraved nickel silver. Four mouthpieces are available (see pictures). All mouthpieces are 5 1/8 inch wide, are made of steel or steel and copper, have inlaid copper strips to promote salivation, and are made in the diameters listed in pictures and dropdown. The bit comes with the #BH51 3/8 inch Latigo Leather Bit Hobble as shown.
How it works: The angle of this shank allows time for the horse to respond to the reins being adjusted (pulled) before the mouthpiece contacts the sides of the mouth, tongue and roof of the mouth and the curb strap makes contact with the chin or vice-versa when the reins are released. This truly is a great little shank! Almost all horses respond to this shank with confidence and contentment. This is a favorite with professional horsemen.
Shown on sorrel horse in addition to the #A4 Steel C Shank Bit is the #HU1 Bosalita 1/2 Inch, the #DMR3 Round 3/8 inch Nylon Mecate, and the #BC2 Shaped Breast Collar, custom stamped.

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.

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.
