There is no difference , there was a 45 short colt cartridge made for just a short time back in the early1900's but it quickly went away , however the name " Long Colt " just stuck .
Different names for the same cartridge.

They are the same exact round. When the .45 Schofield (S&W) round was introduced in the late 1800s people began to refer to the .45 Colt as the .45 Long Colt, or Long .45, because the .45 Schofield was shorter. The name may have changed for a while, but the actual round never did.
The 45 long colt has a longer rimmed case and is used in revolvers and rifles. The 45ACP has no rim, is shorter and is used in automatic pistols. They share the same bullets but the cases and powder charges are different. You can't interchange the two.

The Colt Python is a revolver. Revolvers have long been out of favor with law enforcement agencies of all types. The chief reason being the number of rounds capable of being fired by the weapon at one reloading. Semi-automatic pistols ALL have greater capacity than the standard six-shooter.
It depends. Many people say "38" when they are referring to the .38 special, so in that case, there is no difference, they are one and the same. However, there are several .38 caliber cartridges other than the .38 special. There is the .38 ACP, .38 long Colt, .38 short Colt, .38 S&W, .38 Super, and I think one or two others.
the judge fires 45 colt which is the same as 45 long colt not to be confused with 45 acp it also fires 410 shot shells
