Doug Turnbull offers charcoal blueing & I'm sure others do as well. That is what I would do if the rest of the gun is as nice as you say as charcoal blue would be the period correct finish. Since you don't need to remove any pitting, putting a high polish on the trigger guard prior to blueing should not damage the engraving if the polisher knows what he is doing.
