I don't have strong hands due to arthritis. Please rate how difficult or easy to rack the slide on this gun.

Virgilio, slide rack effort is subjective. All these opinions of strong hand folks will have little benefit. Only someone with similar hand strength as yourself can be of true help to you. I highly recommend going to a local gun store and try a few handguns firsthand and choose what is comfortable for you. If the dealer can't match Buds overall price then buy at Buds and have it shipped.
Virgilio, All the semi-autos are going to be about the same effort and grip to rack the slide. The easiest slide to manually cycle is the S&W EZ series that several community members have suggested.

all of the 9mm guns are going to be close in the effort to rack them with your hand issues I suggest either a 38 special revolver or waiting for the just announced S&W Shield EZ which should hit the markets soon guns.com/news/2019/12/12/sw-shield-ez-9mm
