Sorry, forget about my previous answer. You already have everything in
one model. So you can just use -lincom- to compute the average
coefficient and its standard error:

*---------------- begin example -------------------
// get data
webuse supDem, clear

// estimate the model
global demand "(qDemand: quantity price pcompete income)"
global supply "(qSupply: quantity price praw)"
reg3 $demand $supply, endog(price)

// see how coefficients are called
reg3, coefl

// compute the average effect of price
lincom (_b[qDemand:price] + _b[qSupply:price] )/2
*-------------------- end example -----------------
(For more on examples I sent to the Statalist see:
