RIA 2011-A2 9mm: ramp or non-ramp barrel ?

I want an RIA 2011 double stack.

Pics of RIA 9mm barrel I have seen are non-ramp.
A guy on brianenos says his 9mm/TCM #51947 has a ramp.

Do you know which 9mm RIA has a ramp barrel?
 
FYI:
I have emailed Armscor about the 9mm barrels on double stack pistol models #51680, #51679, and #51947 -- are the 9mm barrels ramped like the barrel on Pro Match .40 pistol?
Ivan J. Walcott (Armscor Sales Manager) replied, "Yes they are".


Also, found mrgunsngear video on 2011-A1 TCM/9mm single stack:

I just got a PM from a forum member describing a 51947 barrel as, "There's a small lip on the frame, then the barrel is chamfered to meet up with the lip on the frame.".
It sounds to me like it is USGI/non ramp barrel.
=============
Now, I am not sure if there are new production RIA 9mm/TCM with ramped barrels and forum member's pistol is earlier production.

Attached is a pic of non-ramp and ramp barrels side by side.

I was just at a LGS today and check out several RIAs (9mm, 9mm/tcm, 40, 45, 10mm) 1911 A1 and A2, compact and full sized 2011, and tactical II.
All the barrels of the 9mm and 9mm/TCM pistols I held are unramp/USGI style.
Only the 10mm and the .40 caliber pistols have ramped barrels.
 
Well -- done more researching and found this on the internet:

My Range Officer Compact 9mm has a ramped barrel, a good thing since the frame is alloy. Overall, it's an excellent Officer size 1911. The RO Champion 9mm is the same except has a full size grip.

I hope you're able to find something doublestack that works for you. If not, there's always the Hi-Power! :D
