I don't see how someone with arthritis and limited hand strength is going to do better with a pocket .380 than the revolver, for example, pulling a long DAO trigger with only 1 1/2 fingers on the grip to brace it.

Seems like that mag would get in the way of getting a good grip on the gun in your pocket?

The Sig P238 HD is very nice and its weight helps reduce recoil relative to is size class. However, its 3.9" height means it has a 2-finger grip, which some would find less controllable than a gun with a longer grip.
