    I assume you mean 45ACP as 45 Colt will work in 454 Casull chambers.

    No, I meant 45 colt.
    Some guys want a cylinder specific for firing 45 colt as if firing 45 colt out of a 454 it needs to be be kept very clean , otherwise, the 454's may not chamber. We often sell freedom armd with a 454 and 45 colt cylinder for this reason. Same with a 357/38. Some guys have a cylinder for each.
    However, riht now, no extra 45 ACP or 45 colt cylinders

    Ruger could make alot of money if they made these with a second 45ACP cylinder, its too bad...

    I agree, now, the nice thing is, Ruger/Lipseys are very open to suggestions from retailers. I've had many great conversations with Jason, talking about the next 'project'. Bad news is, Ruger has been way behind on delivery times for many projects lately, especially, in the #1 line up.
