| Customize Civilian Bits | |||||||
|
You can customize a Old West Bit by selecting the cheek pieces and mouth piece. You can
also add a cricket to most of the mouthpieces. I have not dated the cheek style or mouthpieces, so you are
on your own as far as use for any particular time period. Some of these styles are available "Silver
Mounted" on a very limited basis, call for more information.
Custom Made Item, 4 to 6 weeks for delivery. We only stock a couple in the store so that people can see them. These are made in the USA. |
