An interchangeable mouthpiece bit for use with horses or the like includes a pair of spaced apart shank members adapted at one end thereof for connection to a structure for attachment to a horse's head and adapted at the other end thereof for connection to reins. A mouthpiece is attached to an intermediate portion of each of the shank members for insertion into the mouth of a horse. A connection for selectively detaching and re-attaching the mouthpiece to the shank members is provided so that one pair of shank members can be used with a plurality of different mouthpieces. The mouthpiece connection includes a post attached at one end thereof to an intermediate portion of each of the shank members. A post receiving member is connected to the ends of the mouthpiece for being slideable onto the post and extending around the post far enough to allow only slideable movement between the post and the post receiving member when the post receiving member is disposed on the post. A locking structure is attached to an intermediate portion of the shank members for selectively preventing slideable movement between the post and the post receiving member.
