I'll soon be looking to sell two heavily optioned M&P's: 40/357/9mm barrels, all the Apex goodies, etc. Where would you suggest listing them to be seen by likely buyers for that sort of pistol -- I have no idea, as I usually don't sell. I have an FFL who can handle the paperwork for out-of state sales.

For sale section here would be an option, of course. I would recommend a certain forum, but you have to be a member a while to have the ability to sell, and its a limited access place with a relatively hardcore military/LE focus. There used to be a big gunshop in the Victor area, but I can't even begin to remember the name of it; it has to be a good 35 years since I was in it.
 
I think selling here would be a good choice. There is also GunAuction.com. I have used that site for years with no issues.
 
I don't mean to sound condescending in any way; but, list it on multiple forums and gunbroker.
 
Yes... post it on several forums, but if you do, remember to say in the ad that it IS listed on multiple forums. Some For Sale forums get upset if they see a 'Item is Sold' reply when nobody in that forum posted an 'I'll Take It' reply. ;)
 
and... make sure you post it in the proper marketplace/classified forum of whatever site you choose.

Bottom line, read the rules BEFORE you post.
 
If you are on a forum related to the specific type of competition the gun was customized for try there. If it is just a gun with a lot of accessories/options that you added because you thought they were neat then sell it just like any un-modified gun. The problem with "customizing" anything is you can rarely find anyone who wants exactly the same features you have added, so don't expect to recover the cost of whatever you added, it isn't going to happen. Your idea of "custom" is just about everyone elses idea of bubbaed.
