The ex-guard wanted to get rid of his last weapons. He had a S&W 2206 and 642.
I bought the 2206 and the inner parts from the 642. 642 frame, cylinder and barrel go to the police to be scrapped. ( :( )
Our gun law doesn't like small handguns = "pocket guns". I would get permission for it, but it would be difficult to sell it later.

Serial TEZ93xx S&W Standard Catalog 4th edition don't know TEZxxxx. I'm guessing 1990 or 1991

I'm going out on a limb here and while disregarding the M-642 parts will attempt to describe what I believe you have purchased.

I think you have purchased a M-622 (if it is an alloy frame and a stainless upper) (silver colored) but if it has a (blued) upper slide and an alloy annodized (also blue appearing) lower it's a Model 422. A model 60 was/is a J-frame made from stainless, originally chambered for the .38 Special Cartridge I'm sure you realize that you have a very well designed semi-auto .22 caliber pistol that was very underpriced when produced and gaining value every day, enjoy in good health and thanks for posting!

Now you are talking, the M-2206 is my pick of the litter because of its weight and less felt recoil, mostly all stainless construction. The Sight Adjustment Tools you pictuered and the cleaning rods were included with new handguns by the factory, I won't attempt to date them but have seen a photograph including all examples and the era in which they appeared.
Will also mention the M-2213 & 2214 which are pocket size pistols. Ventilated Rib versions of the M-422, 622 & 2206, examples of which I have not seen in person, are encountered less often and bring premium prices. Thank you for clearing up my missunderstanding of your original purchase, again, enjoy your M-2206!

One other bit of information I failed to mention is that the M-41 Magazines also fit these pistols.

I would think that the super long suppressor in the first picture of the first post would be harder to keep than the pocket revolver. At least in the US it would be.

Nice pistol!! The 4.5" 2206 is one of my favorites. Oddly enough I have 2 that are TEZ933X that are as close to sequentially numbered as I've been able to find. A set of Pachmayr grips works really well on that pistol.

The 2206 has the pinned front sight as is pictured. It also has an adjustable trigger stop, you can barely see the hole for the screw under the trigger guard.

In Finland, a silencer is allowed on all weapons, but pocket guns are prohibited for ordinary citizens.
You can only get a permit for them based on work or collecting weapons.

A pocket gun. A pocket gun refers to a firearm, but not a gas gun, that fits in a rectangular box with internal dimensions of 130 x 180 millimeters, placed in such a way that the barrel and butt of the weapon are parallel to the plane of the bottom of the box.
Box 5,12" x 7,09"
 
The flat blade stamped steel sight adjustment tool is what would have been shipped with the 2206. The screwdriver-type of tool was shipped with adjustable sight S&W guns but years before the 2206 was made, so that tool may be in this group but that tool came with neither the 2206 or the revolver.

As for the cleaning rods, the knurled end rod was original in the box with the 2206, as are the copper brush and the ragged mop. The cleaning rods with the finger loops are earlier items, one may have been shipped with the revolver but no finger loop rod was shipped with a 2206.
