Minor scratches

Although you can find images anywhere, it is rare they are found on the shelf with the cap on.

It “took a beating and kept on clicking”.
Reminds me of the time my Mom got a Canon Sure Shot 35mm film camera years ago. She got in our car and slammed the door on the strap and didn't realize it. We drove about 3 miles on a slushy road. When we reached our destination she got out, looked down, picked up the camera and said, "I just found a camera just like mine, but this one is really beat up." Then she realized what happnned.
That camera still worked!

Sell it, buy a new one.

Whether it’s metal or plastic, if you decide to use sandpaper start with a minimum of 1,000 grit or 2,000. Cut a small piece and wet it. You’ll have less of a chance of causing more damage and a better chance of hiding the damage. The suggestion of using Testors model paint is the way I would go, but I suggest you dilute it a bit. Start small in the less conspicuous area. Good luck!

M4???
Helps if you use “Quote Reply” as I have done.
It appears to be a Leica M4. Tilted rewind crank. The M3’s rewind knob was vertical.
I used to use an M4 at a previous job.
Boss found 3 kits at state surplus.... priced by the pound!
The kits came with 35, 50 and 90mm lenses.
Loved that thing! (But it was silver, not black)

Ah, I see! Thanks for the advice. Thought so because I still have the silver version with the 90 elmarit. Wouldn't trade it for the world!

M4 what? The rifle, or the Leica?
My bad, thought I was appealing to the Leica aficionados. Didn't realize I had brought out the gunslingers in this photography forum. Although, they used to call Brooklyn "Dodge City" back in the day. My apologies for the confusion.
