Saint Stacey	No. A true gag has no curb to stop the gag action. I would call this a combo with a slight gag action. But in my book it is not a gag. Calling this a gag is like calling it a snaffle because it has a broken mouthpiece.

Saint Stacey	I guess it's basically all about the terminology you want to use. Because my comment could be argued that I'm talking about a draw bit. So if you are talking type of bit, no the bit pictured isn't a gag. If you are talking the action produced, then yes it could be considered a gag. That's probably why some say yes and some say no. I'm not sure if that makes sense or not?
