Hey there! Ogata's skill with guns is definitely a canon ability from our perspective. What would be helpful for us would be if, when you put in your claim, you provide specifics on Ogata's skill with guns so that we have a more comprehensive idea of what all that skill would encompass. From that point, we'll work up some concrete bonuses that would apply to his skill.
Before you commit to that, though, we do want to clarify that the bonuses involved in Ogata's theoretical gun skill would be less powerful than Engineer skills, just in order to keep things balanced. For example, he would not get Advantage but might instead get a +2 in certain areas. This isn't set in stone, obviously, but we do want to make sure to be up front about that just in case that affects your Advanced Path choices.
Please let us know if you have any more questions! We're happy to elaborate.
