I am not sure how well they work, but they do sell "Blueing" pens at most outdoors stores. Look in the gun cleaning supplies area.
Duck hunting can be brutal on guns, so scratches are common.

Bluing is tricky, but you can give it a whirl. Is it a black gun? If so, I've used a Sharpie with surprising results. Seriously.

I used a blueing pen last year on my benelli. I had a pretty good sratch from rubbing on a canoe. It worked surprisingly well. I would recommend giving it a shot.

Thanks guys, I will have to try that. I know having scratches on the gun just gives it character, but like I said before I just got it and was trying to keep it looking nice for the first season.
