Regarding the OP, What barrel length you have ? @ RockRivr1
My 29 is a 8 3/8ths barrel and my 629 is a 6” barrel.

Yes, my bad.... Thanks for pointing that out as I have now corrected it!
Thank you for clarifying and thanks for the info on the speed loader. I have been debating on a Diamond D chest rig and trying to decide if I wanted speed loader holders. I think I will skip those. Maybe carry a couple another way.
Thank you.
[/QUOTE]If I was to name all the shoulder and chest rigs I have used over the years not many would read thru the long answer. Jump to here and now: me, two of my sons and friends in Alaska who are around the water all wear the Gunslinger Kenai rig for larger pistols.If you realize the actual value of a well made and designed Synthetic rig the Kenai is the way to go. They are not cheap, starting at $150 .The Company is a great small personal organization which aims to please. The holster is a phenomenal Kydex design, all my N frame Smiths snap in ( quietly) and you can do a back flip and gun is not going anywhere ! There are no straps to release. There harness system is the best of it's kind and doesn't flop around and the unique high draw angle enables a prone draw . Once you buy one system ,say for your N frame 629, other pistols of all makes and types can use the harness system by just getting another size holster which snaps in place. The harness is bomb proof, wide and soft and would support mountaineering ! I carry a bino harness over and lower than it when hunting. I have a Glock 20 holster and an S&W N frame holster and it carries a 4" or 8 3/8" equally well. It is a great , as in best holster to ride a recreational open vehicle with or horseback, I've done both. It does not block a back pack either. No moisture retention or maintenance required works 135 to minus 60 degrees and even under water

I bought one from Western Images Leather Works a couple years ago. Mine is actually set up for a Desert Eagle. I had to modify it somewhat to work well for that gun, but it also works well with a Ruger Blackhawk.
I keep thinking I need to incorporate a belt loop to keep it from riding up when I draw. That’s not so much an issue with the revolvers, but the Desert Eagle tends to grab it a bit more.
