Good day to all,
My name is Brian, a 20-something from Lexington, KY. (Figured I'd introduce myself as this is my first post)
I've been lingering around here for awhile now, normally popping in when Google would point me this way. Today I decided to join to continue my education and hobby.
Anyway, enough about me: This post is to ask opinions on a good CCW pistol for someone with arthritis. My dad has been suffering for sore joints for some years, having busted his knuckles up in his earlier years as a mechanic. I'm wanting to get him a new pistol for Christmas 2012, to replace the Hi-Point he has been carrying.
I recently got a Glock 23 which he seemed to enjoy, though whatever I get him will be 9mm (he has a stockpile of that already).
However, trigger pull is not an issue for me, so I am asking: What pistol comes stock with the smoothest, and lightest trigger pull, and also what gun is easiest to garage gunsmith into a lighter pull?
As I said, my current thought process is a G19, but that is mainly based on my love for Glocks and a knowledge of dropping in a lighter trigger.
Thanks in advance for everything and I hope to learn from and contribute to this community!!
