Odd Holster & Mag.

Odd holster and Mag. Yesterday I picked a rather nice 1918 Erfurt all matching in a hoster with a spare mag but no tool. The holster is odd. It is black all over, strap which buckles in the same way as the Army type except that on the body of the holster a piece has been stitched in. The stitching runs up behind the buckle and on the back, in the same place but runs under one of the belt loops. The bottom (barrel end) is cut of flat and stitched around. It almost looks like it has been professionally constructed from a german revolver holster. It has the marks 2TB inside the flap but no other makers marks.Has anyone any idea what it is and what it is worth. The spare mag is also odd. It is bright crome with a brown moulded plastic like material base held in position with two pins. It has a syleized P or T on the bottom back of the tube. Is this a swiss magazine as shown in Kenyons book page 397 figure 10. Can anyone identify these two items that I have never seen before.
