Charter Arms makes the Pathfinder in .22.
I have an older, adjustable sighted, one in stainless.
Shoots well and is about the same size as my Smith J-frames.
More recent versions don't have adjustable sights.

My Ruger polymer frame .22 had an acceptably light d.a. trigger pull--lighter than the J frame belonging to the elder man with hand issues.
317 is probably the way to go for a 22LR revolver. The plastic primer only rounds are also a great idea. If you want a lighter trigger than the rimfire revolvers, and don't mind the ammo cost, .32 hand ejectors are pretty much the last remaining affordable smith revolvers, and they're extremely cool.
A 43c with a Wollf reduced weight spring. I have one in mine and have yet to have a firearm related issue making decent ammo go bang.
As big a fan as I am of .32's, .32 ammo is freaking expensive if you're not reloading.
Only you and your dad know if his issues will cause problems with shooting a DAO revolver.
The LCR is significantly cheaper than the 43c however, I can't speak for the reliability of reduced weight springs in the LCR .22.
Men freely believe that which they desire.

thanks. not all that up on .38spl ammo pricing, but $232/1000 for range ammo sure feels like a pretty decent price. I'll have to order some in a couple days to try.
eta: that was before the 25% off. $174.30 for 100 148gr HBWC rounds? and free shipping? daddy is gonna spend money now!
