Default holster for L frame 2.5"

A few days ago, I posted a thread (How'd I do? (long post, w/pics)) about my new L frame snub. I love the thing, and it will eventually become my primary carry during the fall/winter months. It is, however, a beast trying to find a holster for it from the traditional holster manufacturers. Any suggestions? As always, pics and/or links to pics would be appreciated? I have done a search on the subject (believe me), but I am looking for fresh input. Thanks in advance.

Hi:
The most comfortable holster I have found for me is a Safariland Pancake
#FL226 with a thumb break safety strap.
I have carried "N" frames CCW using this type holster.

I carry my 2.5" Model 66 in a Galco Speed Master which they now call the Combat Master. The quality is great and it fits my gun like a glove. Galco holsters; Holsters; Gun holster, pistol holsters, western holsters, shoulder holsters, leather holster and Glock holsters
