None. the Ranger II existed before, during and after the Duty CT.
Lack of sales. One Factory can only produce so many guns. When you're always backordered 3+ months, you drop the ones that don't sell to increase capacity for the ones that do.
In all the time that the Duty CT was available, I never had one request for one. If that's changed - let STI and I know. As Dave says, if there's a market - they'll go back to building them now that they've expanded and can better keep up with current demands.
Never had a problem with the "recoil master" on my Ranger II (.45) nor did I notice it doing anything beneficial.
This just looks like a Ranger w/ a rail?
I'm not feelin' any love here...
Maybe I'm the only one who wants one.
And do you know what? It works fine. Disassembly is simple. No dragons here. I only wish I'd bought one sooner.

I, too, had prejudicial reservations about the recoilmaster, just as I still do about any 1911 FLGR. For years I hesitated on buying (the Ranger and then the Ranger II and the Duty CT) primarily because of that unwanted feature. But the 4.15" barrel length is a feature that I very much do want. (Remember, with a bull barrel, a barrel-bushing-retention conventional/G.I. recoil system is not an option.)

I don't know....I've read reports of people having failures because of the recoilmaster. Granted, you can read just about anything on the Internet, but I'd rather have a traditional one spring setup in 1911 pistol.
