Looks like the web strap is a US carbine sling, the early kahki version.

It does, but isn't. Even the earliest carbine slings had a "lift the dot" snap closure at one end. This is an early, US khaki utility strap.

That end has been cut off, see the one end has been sewn or riveted to the slide?
But then it could be a utility strap, really doesn't matter either way- it is not original or German.
