Now imagine trying to make that fair in PvP. It would be impossible. I frankly don't know how they currently do it now.

The same way they do it now. Level out power with minimal custom performance differences.

Otherwise you have a sweet weapon you want in PvE and Iron Banner, not just "eh, well...its the best one I've found so far."

Yeah, but it sounds that from what you are proposing, there will be an exponentially more possible OP combinations.

# Barrel mods X # choke mods X # shell mods X # scope mods X Number of guns + Exotics X # mods = a TON of variations to compensate for

It's true, that Destiny already has a ton of variations, but this would increase that a ton.
More variables = More fun = more problems for devs = more potential places to break the ecosystem

Don't get me wrong, I love what you are proposing. But I'm also a Dev and the idea of maintaining that hurts my head, like a lot.
