I don't know if this has been posted before. I did a search for it on the forum and didn't find it.
Maybe it's already common knowlege and I'm just catching up.
I wanted to find out how old my M-94 is so I went looking. This was the fastest and easiest serial number search I ever did.
http://www.taurususa.com/find-model.cfm I found out my M-94SS4 was made in 1992.
I'm not a big Taurus fan, but this little gun has won my heart. The holster is an old Safariland I picked up used. It was made for a S&W M-43 or 63 Kit Gun. Because the frame on the Taurus is about a tenth of an inch longer, it rides a little high in the holster. But it is the best fit I could find in leather. The Pachmayr Compac grip works best for my hands. I have had the little gun for about 10yrs and enjoy the heck out of it!
