I shot the small frame DA Ruger earlier this year and I liked it. The Single-Six are nice guns too.

Now your talking, I am looking for a collector quality K22 in the 1949-50 date to match with my K38 from 1949. Personally of those two, I would pick the second one for $400, all matching numbers including grips. The pre 17, 5 screw, 6" barrel K frame 22's are sweet shooters, and always worth more when you sell them if all numbers match.

Have you considered the Ruger Single Ten ?

You cannot go wrong with a Smith K22, aka Model 17 and Model 18.
With .22's, it all boils down to what you want to spend. There are a LOT of options across the price spectrum. Ruger Single Six or Ten, or Smith 617, for instance. I have an old Single Six but I'd love to have a 617 or something like that. I've never pulled the trigger on a Taurus that I wanted to pull again. There may be some that are okay, I just haven't seen one. (I haven't tried that many, in the spirit of full-disclosure).
The 94 is not bad. I don't like the double action, but the design makes the hammer pull easy enough. It's a fun little gun, but you can't compare it to a S&W revolver. It just isn't made for such a comparison at all. I think I paid under $300, which was the entire draw. I've spent more on a scope.
