The pitting shown is of no concern whatsoever. Oil it up, reassemble, and enjoy your rifle. If you are really, really, really anal about it, which is OK, just get another Mosin for a couple hundred bucks.

I will bet you a disassembly of the deer rifles in most pawnshops would show the same thing.

The Russians did a pretty good job of preserving their Mosins and Mausers for 70 years.
