Recommend a holster.
Leather is good.

NOT Uncle Mike's or kydex. Start there and it's kind of hard to go far wrong.

I like the Triple K #196-1 thumb break for a nice leather holster on the inexpensive side. Will fit your K or L frame Smiths.
You can take it up scale from that point.

I still use an old Bianchi suede lined basket weave that I bought with the revolver back in the 70’s.

I'd look at the Barranti Ranger or model 44.
Chronographs, bore scopes and pattern boards have broke a lot of hearts.

The holster it came with is well traveled, and the Style matches exactly the Tom Threepersons from EPS...

For my M17 I once had in my small (very small, due to silly German gun laws) collection I had the 1920 El Paso Tom Threepersons, too. A classic gun asks for a classic style holster.

I like my EPS Threeperson's for my 6" K22 until I sit down. A tanker style would be more comfortable in more situations.

I paid $250 for this 1955 K22, scope, and holster off a gunshow table in 1995. The holster is a Smith and Wesson 21 36 http://smith-wessonforum.com/smith-...w-leather-catalog-holster-fit-chart.html
