Used to own a older Taurus 94. Sold it for a newer model 94.
The older model worked just fine, but I wanted a 94 with the 5inch barrel.
Went with a Taurus 990 as well.
The LGS claimed they dould not sell the 990 so I bought it at a reduced price.
Lucky me.
The gun cuts very small groups at 25 yards and all in the black.
Type of target used.

If the 94 passes this:If the checklists are followed in what to look for prior to buying one cannot get into trouble.

If not a S&W 63 or 617 is a good bet.
