Need help dating my M1 Garand ammo belt/suspenders

[AaronGee]

Hello, (first time poster).

I bought an M1 Garand ammo belt with suspenders a while ago at a gun show. I spent $100CAN ($80US). I was told at the time that it was from WWII. But looking at it now I think the suspenders are M1956? Can anyone tell me if the ammo belt is authentic and how old it is or did I completely get ripped off?

My Garand is from 1954-56 so I actually prefer late 50's equipment to accompany it, I just want to know if I got an ok deal or not.
