I'd be livid if I had a horse on training board and found out some girl lunged my horse with a chain (I'm jumping to conclusions and saying the chain from the leadrope) in its mouth. Ya see your not looking at the mechanics of it. If a chain is laying across the mouth its not going to be pinching because its streched tight vs. laying in a pile. Someday when you have a few more horses under your belt you'll see that chains are nowhere near as bad as you think they are now. I used to dislike chain bits an now I have a few.
