Cool!

My friend had almost no problem racking the slide on a G19, but the smaller one [no clue what the smaller glock is, but there is one] was too tough for her. The G17 size was even easier.

My S&W M&P9c was tougher for her to rack the slide on than the G19, but the G19 is a little longer.

My advice to my friend was a G19 and a LOT of training, as the trigger pull was still tough for her on the LCR [which was lighter/smoother than on S&W Bodyguard].
