The trigger, and recoil would be the biggest thing to overcome when it comes to this firearm for a senior women. It is a smaller frame so grip should not be an issue
Hi Rodney and welcome. Yes as it has moderate rack effort. A more suitable pistol in every regard to easy racking, loading and shooting is the S&W Shield EZ : https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/415015296/smith+%26+wesson+m%26p380+shield+ez+.380+acp+orchid+stainless
Okay, my wife had issues with racking so she went with the S&W Shield EZ and loves it! It comes in either .380 or 9mmm. It has a lighter spring which makes working the slide a breeze, especially if someone has issues with weaker hands.
