One of my favorite plinking guns to shoot is an old High Standard .22 Sport King. Someone refinished it, but it has pretty severe pitting on the barrel, slide and a little on the frame. It's easier to clean than my Ruger Mark II, so I've been shooting the heck out of it. I inherited it from my grandfather-in-law.
Bottom line: Pitting is ugly, but rarely hurts the function of the gun.
