I've not heard any of my old folk refer to them as "jags" either (and it does come up as a regular topic of conversation in my line of work!).
"Two Jags" was John Prescott, but didn't it get changed to "Two Jabs" after the rumble in Rhyl?
Thats what a jab is to me Proserpina, a short fast punch with a fist, a jag is something you get from the likes of a thorn or a skelf or again a needle, such as the instrument used for injections
