I got my mom an S&W Bodyguard 38 with laser a few years ago. She got herself a sweet old lady conceal purse to carry it in. She'll be 76 this year and has arthritis in her hands. Here lately she's had a hard time pulling the trigger on the hammerless revolver.
I tried to give her a Kimber Solo, a Glock 43, XDS, Shield but she just can't pull the slideback on semi-autos with her arthritis
Now I'm looking for a revolver with a hammer, light trigger and preferrably lighter than a 38, doesn't have to be any specific caliber just something her hands can handle. She keeps asking me to find her a 22 revolver but I've had 22's go "click" on more occasions that I care to remember. Any suggestions ?

My wife carries the LCR 38, my mom had trouble pulling the trigger on it as well, does the 22 LCR have the same weight springs ?
It's very lightweight I would take her by a gun shop and give it a try.im thinking the weight of the gun could affect her strength
