Hell, they're ALL pretty good.
The new Charter Arms company (and their guns) are NOT the same as the older ones. I'm not sure about what design they modified to come up with the new guns, but I believe them to be closely related to some Rossi designs. In so, they'll tend to be robust and reliable, but a titch rough working. especially in the DA trigger pull. Nothing that can't be smoothed out for little cost, just something they couldn't afford to do and still sell the gun at a bargain price - which it is.
My old-style, old-company Bulldog .44 is as smooth as glass, but it's been shot a goodly amount, and may have been smoothed out before I bought it, as well.
If none of your Charter choices pan out, the Taurus M-85 is a fine .38.
