Sounds like the old ones are the good ones according to this thread.
The problem with the old ones is they are almost all 3" barreled ones. The latest version seems to be pretty good. The DA trigger pull out of the box is pretty long and bad. I have only a couple hundred live rounds and maybe 500 dry fires on mine and it has improved significantly. It needed some breaking in.
The metal finish is not as well executed as a S&W, but try and find a 2½" bbl 5 shot S&W in 44 special. There just aren't any. If you do find one, the price will be at least an order of magnitude higher that the Charter.
The 2½" Pug is a viable pocket gun. And a pocket-full of power. If it was a little more refined in its mfg I would say it is an ideal carry piece.
I'm also snooping around for a 2" 5-shot 45 acp revolver. mmmmmm
