The port is narrower than a Level 3 mouthpiece, but still offers room for the horse’s tongue to pass under the bit. Because the port is narrow, when the reins are engaged, the horse will feel a slight pressure on the outside edges of the tongue a gentle reminder rather than a strong reprimand. The port on this mouthpiece is only 1 ½\" high, so it will apply little to no palate pressure. The MB 43MP is the mildest of the Level Two-Three mouthpieces in terms of tongue pressure, just one step below a Level 3 mouthpiece. Sweet Iron mouthpiece oxidizes and encourages salivation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul style=\"margin: 0px 0px 0.7em; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: inherit; font-family: Geneva, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; vertical-align: baseline; list-style-position: inside; list-style-image: initial; background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003e \u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 3px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: inherit; font-family: inherit; font-size: 0.8em; vertical-align: baseline;\"\u003eIndependent Side Movement\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 3px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: inherit; font-family: inherit; font-size: 0.8em; vertical-align: baseline;\"\u003eSweet Iron Mouthpiece, Copper Inlay\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 3px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: inherit; font-family: inherit; font-size: 0.8em; vertical-align: baseline;\"\u003eCurved mouthpiece does not pinch lips and bars\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 3px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: inherit; font-family: inherit; font-size: 0.8em; vertical-align: baseline;\"\u003eBlack shank will discolor over time to an antique brown\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 3px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: inherit; font-family: inherit; font-size: 0.8em; vertical-align: baseline;\"\u003eStainless Steel Dots\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp style=\"margin: 0px 0px 0.7em; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: inherit; font-family: Geneva, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 0.9em; vertical-align: baseline; background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003eNotes: For more tongue pressure, see the MB 27LP. For more tongue relief, see the MB 41PB. For slightly less tongue relief or a lower port, see the 43LP. For the same benefits but with some palate pressure, see the MB 43HP. For the correctional version of this mouthpiece, see the MB 47 and MB 47PB. For the Level 3 version of this mouthpiece without Independent Side Movement, see the MB 12 or MB 98.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"margin: 0px 0px 0.7em; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: inherit; font-family: Geneva, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 0.9em; vertical-align: baseline; background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003eThe MBB shank is a length of flat black steel curved slightly back towards the horse, with a teardrop purchase and a rein ring. The mouthpiece has a fixed attachment to the cheek with a decorative “stack.” The shank is decorated with stainless steel dots. The purchase is angled slightly away from the cheek to avoid rubbing. The black steel will discolor over time to an antique brown.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"margin: 0px 0px 0.7em; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: inherit; font-family: Geneva, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 0.9em; vertical-align: baseline; background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003eThe MBB flat shank is an indirect (curb) rein action designed to be used with a curb strap which attaches to the purchase. This shank uses the combination of fixed cheek and fixed rein to apply pressure to the mouth, chin and poll.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"margin: 0px 0px 0.7em; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: inherit; font-family: Geneva, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 0.9em; vertical-align: baseline; background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003eSize: 6 3\/4\"\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"margin: 0px 0px 0.7em; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: inherit; font-family: Geneva, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 0.9em; vertical-align: baseline; background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003eAction: Indirect\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"margin: 0px 0px 0.7em; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: inherit; font-family: Geneva, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 0.9em; vertical-align: baseline; background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003eDiscipline: Western\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #ffffff; font-family: Geneva, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 0.9em;\"\u003eDegree of Leverage: Moderate\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Myler Bits","offers":[{"title":"5","offer_id":46582295003391,"sku":"E034058 500","price":199.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0709\/1155\/7887\/files\/TE034058.jpg?v=1754676538","url":"https:\/\/www.countrysupply.com\/products\/myler-level-2-3-mbb-flat-shank-sweet-iron-medium-port-barrel-narrow-bit-with-dots","provider":"CountrySupply.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
