Okay, are you a gunsmith as your display name suggests?
Yes, there are ways to decrease the amount of strength required to rack the slide, but it won't be by much at all. It may be better. Instead I teach him the proper way (push-pull method). If that doesn't work then it is doubtful that changing the recoil springs will help.
