Does any one sell them? One size does not fit all. TIA!!!
Sure. My horse takes a 5.5" and I have no trouble finding them. Dover has plenty
Something like this in a 5 1/2?

Do you want a plain one for everyday schooling? In that case just buy an english style one, larger sizes are easy to find.
If you want a larger one that’s fancy, Les Vogt and Tom Balding both have 5.5 and 6" options. The wider mouths are popular with some cowhorse people, but it works out for those whose horses actually need a larger size too.
I don’t want this to be thought of as advertising. . . but if you can’t find what you’re looking for let me know. I do not have that exact bit but found 3 that are quite similar from one of our distributors. I’ve never looked at the western bits before, you guys have some really pretty stuff!
Interesting. I’ve always found snaffle bits larger than 5 inches a tack stores or online. My problem has always been how to find them smaller. Also, always looking for snaffle, french link or baucher in a 5.25. But 5.5 is pretty common. Makes me wonder where the OP is looking?
Western snaffles are somewhat smaller than what you regularly see in English tack shops.
OP is looking for a twisted dogbone o-ring snaffle in a size bigger than 5". It’s going to be very difficult to find; for whatever reason western style snaffles rarely come in anything but 5".
You may want to try one of the custom bit makers - http://lwbits.com/ comes to mind.
Thank you so much everyone.
And Thank you so much sublimequine!!! That site has the exact bit I need.
