5. Lock up.
The CA will lock up on the crane. S&W will put a ball detent on some of their fancy N frames but not on any of their J or K fames. CA does it better.

My Model 19-9 has a ball detent on the crane. That's a K-frame.
Seen here, that little silver piece is a spring loaded ball that locks into a recess on the crane. I'm not sure what other S&W's have it, but it stands to reason at least the current Model 66 (stainless version of the 19-9) has it also.
Having said that I won't dispute that Charter makes a pretty decent gun. I've owned I don't know how many over the years, but I've gradually weeded them all out over time. They're OK, but not really my cup of tea.
