I could remove pitting from a surface and restore it. Deep pits would be welded, machined then hand worked. Its not just the area of a pit but the whole surface. Typically you would lose at least .005" from a surface in order to have it look "new" again. As an idea of cost- take any one cohesive area of that gun and figure on 4-5 hours at $100 an hour. Then comes the issue of blueing. As others said it will not match. An option, is to use a product such as "lab metal" or other fillers. Then sand out the area and cerakote or powder coat it.
I would not do any of that to the gun you posted a link to.
