I got a PPK chambered in 380 ACP for my wife about 3 weeks ago. The main problem for her is racking the slide despite multiple YouTube videos on technique, she had carpal tunnel in the past. Walther has a 30 day guarantee and I can get my money back, about $850 before taxes. Does anyone know of any pistols with these requirements for under $850 with her requirements:
380 ACP
DA/SA
Hammer Fired
De-cocker Safety Combo could be separate.
Easy racking.
No micro guns.
I found a Walther pk380 but it has no de-cocker, you have to press the trigger on safe to drop the hammer.
The Bersa Thunder 380 is a little better but still might not be great (I have both).
I know this is not what you are looking for but someone makes a barrel racker (saw them at Cabela’s) for people with issues not unlike what you are describing. This http://handi-racker.com/ is not the one I saw but is the first one I found using Goggle.
@Brad@Jerzees the shield looks good but she does not like the light SA pull. I am trying to convince her on the PK380 which has almost all the requirements except the de-cocker and is easy to rack like the EZ. I’m going to a shop today to compare the EZ and PK380. I was seeing if there was anything I missed on Google.
I ended up getting her a PK380 the trigger and feel of the gun was better than the EZ, the EZ was just a hair easier to rack but not much difference. There was not Bersa there. Thanks everyone for your input.
