Thank you for saving me from my own acquisitiveness.
Am I correct that the semibreak-front Model 350 for "K" frame will prove satisfactory as holster for Ruger SP101 with 4.2 inch barrel? If the 350 is not a satisfactory holster, in the universe of strong-side break-front holsters, what holsters would do the job?

The Rugers are unsuited to any of the cylinder pocket holsters for two reasons: the large rounded recoil shields prevent the pockets from gripping the cylinder for retention and the holster front doesn't close, advertising that fact; and the release latch is IN the recoil shield so the spring loaded holster is actively working to defeat the latch. The growing popularity of the Rugers for PDs pushed all us makers over to the type exemplified by the 350 Hurricane, which retains only by the back of the guard. All this applies to the 9R, too, and is why the 209 reintroduced the original #9 grip method by the guard.
