Can a 45LC Single action revolver shoot a 45 ACP? Do you need a extra cylinder for ACP? Thanks.

Theodore, .45 Long Colt and .45 ACP are not interchangeable. LC is meant for your revolver, and ACP is intended for your semi-auto. It’s never a good idea to try and shoot ammunition through a weapon that it isn’t designed to fire.
With that being said, there are a few revolvers made to shoot both calibers without changing cylinders, but with the use of moon clips.
The Ruger Redhawk .45 ACP/.45 Colt Revolver and the S&W Governor are two such guns.
Stay safe & have a great day!
