I have mild arthritis in both hands. I can shoot 9 mm pistols, but racking them is difficult. I added rack-assist back plates to my Glock and Sig pistols, but my current favorite carry gun is a FN Reflex. It has an internal hammer that makes racking easier and the trigger is excellent, in my opinion. My 2d option is a Girsan MC14T. The tip-up barrel removes the need to rack a slide all together.

HK CC9, way too stiff to rack. SW EZ 9mm jams badly on hollow point rounds. Walther CCP, especially Version 1, is so hard to take down and reassemble with the required plastic tool. Any decent 4 inch 9mm semi auto racks easy, especially the split recoil rod systems, like Walther PDP-F, and HK USP 9mm. Significantly easier to rack, will feed hollow points, and are really excellent. The "catch" is that they are pricey. The SW Bodyguard 2.0, a 380, is easy to rack, but the striker spring doesn't have the power to punch primers to actually fire rounds.
