Okay TGT braintrust, I need some advice to help a friend out, any ideas will be greatly appreciated.
Friend of mine wants to get into handgun shooting and also use it for self protection. He has limited use of his right arm and hand. He would like a semi-auto if possible, so we tested out a few of my Glocks. He has enough grip strength to handle things with the hand, but not enough to allow him to rack the slide of a stock G17. He however, has enough strength in his arm that with some sort of mechanical advantage (i.e. a slideracker or other slide projection) he can rack the slide.
So question is, any recommendations for a leftie friendly gun that is easy to rack?
He isn't opposed to revolvers, but he would like a semi-auto of some sort first if possible.
