Those fake supressors were classified as real suppressors by the ATF and recalled. Was this one affected?

Fake Suppressor Reclassified

In January 2010, in the United States; the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives ruled that the previously approved barrel shroud included with the GSG 5 SD to give the cosmetic appearance of a real suppressor (or "silencer") is a true suppressor, despite it being physically incapable of functioning as a suppressor, and therefore is regulated under the National Firearms Act.[2] ATI, Inc. instituted a recall of the item.[3]
 
No, that was the Gen-1 version. The Gen-1 was slightly longer than the barrel and could have been modified, this is the Gen-2 model. Further revisions including a slightly different trigger area, charging handle, front handguard, and front sight post to keep HK happy.
