Virgilio, the Taurus 92 has a slide cut-out that reduces the slide weight by design and has a moderate rack effort compared to other full size pistols. This will be subjective as folks have different grip strengths. I would go to a local gun store and try it and other pistols to see what is right for you.

As long as your hands are operationally good then you have no issue. If you have arthritis or something it will be a bit harder.

Virgilio, Yes the slide functions smoothly. Just not a lot of slide to grab hold of.
