Re: My Old Lady is Struggling to Rack A Slide
+1 on the S&S EZ line or better still, the Equalizer. Or you could go to a 22. My wife can't rack any of the 9s, but she can rack my TX22 easily. Not most people's first choice for personal defense, but it'll do the job.

There's also the option of the Berettas with tip-up barrels that you don't have to rack the slide on at all.
The downside being the largest caliber they make them in is .32. I'd probably look at the s&w EZ's first.
Revolvers are a legitimate option. The problem with them being that while snub nose revolvers are very nice to carry they aren't very nice to shoot, and they're pretty terrible weapons.

Re: My Old Lady is Struggling to Rack A Slide
Your wife's age is not given conditions such as arthritis can make racking a slide difficult, My wife with arthritis has tried with EZ slides to no success .She is happy and prepared enough carrying a Taurus 85 Ultralite with older style Pachmayer grips ,Critical defense rounds 5 shot . She is more than proficient and suggest getting your wife a snub in 2-3 inch 38spl with bigger than the compact grips offered today .
