Who has arthritis in the family and his hands...sigh.
Sorry to hear about your arthritis. The 650/651 are neat little revolvers. While certainly better ballistically, today I'd still take a .22 LR over either of them, now that the drought is over I know I would practice more with the cheaper ammunition.

One of my favorite revolvers is my pre-Model 43 with a 3.5" barrel, so much fun to shoot and weighs under a pound loaded. If limited by disability I would not hesitate to carry that (or maybe better yet, an 8 shot 317 or LCRx).
