You could use cold blue touch-up, but anything you do will reduce the value, including a reblue by S&W, assuming they can still do it that way, and they don't.
Don't change a thing. Those spots may have a history. Is your Grandfather still around to ask about them?
Nice piece!

IN this screwed up state; a weapon mus be on the "approved list." To get on that list, a manufacturer must submit two weapons (of each model, each caliber etc...) to the state along with $1500 per weapon for drop testing. That had to happen each year, for each weapon. This is how it was explained to me by a few dealers and one pissed off ATF Agent in the San Francisco office.
Thanks for the advice. I love that weapon. I also have a shadowbox collection with all his badges from every agency he worked for. He passed away about 12 years ago. My grandmother says that was what he carried, and a Sterling Arms .22 auto he carried in his cowboy boot. I have that too.
Thanks.
