GLWS...take a look at the Smith & Wesson M&P Shield EZ in 9mm.
As an instructor I have steered my students who have lessened grip strength for racking a slide that way and many have been pleased with that choice.
The recoil spring is lighter and the rear of the slide has small 'ears' that enable them to get a good grip on the back of the slide.
The magazines are also easier to load.

My 5yr old can rack the slide on an EZ 9mm S&W. I got my elderly mother one as well, she couldn't rack a Glock 19.

The S&W Sd9VE is super easy as well - I have one and it was only $400 new, great gun, super reliable.

Not trying to talk you out of selling but many times technique needs tweaking and then it's easier to rack the slide.

I've had many female students who were unable to work the slide until they were shown an easier way to do it.

I'll second this, technique is key. Teach her to push using dominant hand while gripping slide with weak hand as opposed to pulling slide with weak hand

Darn ! I'd love to get buy that gun from you. I only wish you were closer to Salem. Gas prices have all but stopped my travelling anywhere.

Thanks for the info. We have tried that with her and no matter the technique she still had a hard time.

You might consider the Walther PDP-F model pistol. It was designed specifically for women and people with smaller hands, and it features a slightly weaker recoil spring which makes it easier to rack. The circumference of the grip and the length of trigger pull are also somewhat shorter than the full size PDP models. If you do a thorough online search, and are patient, you can find a low mileage gun for a good price, which is what I did.
