    A little off topic, but my experience is that add ons really don't have a lot of value. people often want to put their own preference scope on, and maybe they already have suppressors, slings, bipods etc. It seems to be where most of the pricing issues pop up... If you're selling a package deal be prepared to get poor resale value on the add on parts and accessories.
    I recently had a rifle listed with accessories and had no luck for months.
    I sold the spare mags seperatly, and the scope and spare rings etc and was able to drop the price of the rifle drastically and it sold quickly at that price point.
    I got the price I wanted in the end, over 4 sales instead of one.
    I know this doesn't answer your question, but I believe it's an important consideration when listing a gun for sale.
