Gag Bridle - Snaffle Bit

Time to think before the pressure comes.

Every MTO gag is built around one idea: the delay. The horse gets a moment to read you and think for itself before direct pressure arrives. The Gag Snaffle is where that starts.

Zorik's take: "I use it when I ride with more contact. It suits young horses that need a little more time to read us before the direct pressure comes. I also start over with it on horses that had a bad experience with a bit that was misused."

Best for

  • Young horses that need time to read the rider
  • Horses that lean on their shoulders and drift off the line: it helps lift the shoulders
  • Restarting horses with a bad history from a misused bit
  • Riding with more contact, one side at a time

What's included: complete gag bridle with bit, in Short, Medium or Long.

FAQ

Which MTO bit is right for my horse?

Choose by what your horse is doing, not by its age. Not sure? Email us at mtoequestriansupply@gmail.com and we'll help you choose.

What size are MTO bits?

All MTO bits have a 5" mouth, which fits most horses. On our gag bridles, you can adjust the fit by sliding the two knots on the rope.

What are MTO bits made of?

Stainless steel, made in the USA. The Comfy Port D is wrapped in silicone, and our gag bridles use a stiff lasso rope for a clear, gradual signal.

Do you offer returns or exchanges if the bit doesn’t fit?

Yes! We accept returns and exchanges within 30 days of purchase, provided the item is unused and in its original condition.

How long does shipping take?

Orders are processed within 2–3 business days. Standard shipping usually takes 3–7 business days within the U.S. Orders over $99 qualify for free shipping.

How should I clean and care for my bit?

After each use, rinse the bit with warm water and gently wipe it dry. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and make sure it is completely dry before storing.
