My advice is resist the urge to improve the looks of the gun and leave the scatches alone. A polished reciever detracts from both the value and look of the gun more than scratches. Another option would be to have the reciever re-cased but in order to look right the whole gun would need to be restored. A vintage firearm is going to have some imperfections from use, it is to be expected.
