Velcro-attached pad, yes. Abovementioned Invictus with its integral muzzle pad came in before that.
To add to a thread:
This is an uncatalogued Matt DelFatti holster that he built for military folks who used that pistol. My own holster off of that design was built around '14 or '15, so the original design precedes that. I believe this is the first AIWB rig that had a wing to pull the grip in. This holster precedes SME.
