You check the chamber by physically raking the slide? Can't say I'm in the habit of doing this myself.
I understand its practical use, but again, I just think it tends to make the gun look f'ugly. Same with Picatinny rails.

Actually, I didn't pay a penny for the 4506, my grandfather gave it to me as a birthday present. It was his before it was mine. And he really didn't enjoy shooting it any more than I do.
I guess the difference for me is that 1911s have the historical pedigree that Smiths don't have. It's the only reason I might tend to overlook the fact that I'm not really such a huge fan of .45 ACP.
