4” N Frame Holster Recommendations

If you don't mind paying a bit more and waiting a little longer, I'd strongly consider getting a custom holster made. Much sexier than off the shelf stuff and you can personalize it.
Quite a few good outfits easily found on the web that can make one to your specs.

I’m not against it, but want to make sure this thing is a keeper first. It hasn’t even made it to my FFL yet, so once I get the first 500 rounds through it, I’ll decide.

That is a good suggestion. @WNC2500 has a brother that makes some darn nice looking holsters.
 
I have a leather Azula 2 slot pancake holster that was around $60. It holds my 629 4" well and is comfortable. The fit is a little loose when off a belt, but pulls in tight and holds the revolver secure when worn. While not the most beautiful holster in the world, I think it's been a great value foe me.
 
With large revolvers I want a stiffer holster. I have gone to all custom stuff from Nixon Leather. I just grabbed the first appropriate picture off his FB page. He has a bunch of options. IMG_9171.jpeg
 
I agree with the suggestions of a custom-made holster. Maybe see if there’s anyone locally who does leather work. My cousin does a bit of leather work and has made holsters for most of the handguns I’ve owned.
He just made this one for me with a bit of a drop to hang just below the hip belt of my backpack.

I have used a few but my favorite for a revolver is a reversible strong/crossdraw Galco Phoenix. Clean lines and retention and I love the crossdraw option.

Second place: Rob’s own Sourdough Pancake. I use one with a GP100 3”. Much better pricetag…I’m not as fond of how it works crossdraw compared to the Phoenix, but it does work.
 
I like Hank Sloan holsters for my 4" N frames . Here is one with my 24-3 made buy Doc Barranti.
