Rock River lower with BCM Upper And Geissele trigger is the way to go.
The ambi mag release is not the issue with the KAC. KAC is a banned by name "assault rifle" (RAS, SR-15, and SR-25) in California and are not legal in any configuration. In other words, if it's banned by name, features like a mag release don't matter, and a bullet button does NOT make it compliant.
See the CA rifle identification flowchart for a list of all banned by name weapons

For those unfamiliar with this chart, if you are going to own a semiautomatic centerfire rifle in CA, you need to know how to read it and follow it. Just adding one "wrong" part could make you a felon, cost you tens of thousands of dollars, and strip you of your 2A rights.
Yeah, I'll admit that I don't know too much about California gun laws since I live in United States of America.. But if Cali bans guns only buy the "names" of a certain "evil" firearm (uzi ,cobry,ak47 ect) or by the # or name of an AR lower (6920,lmt ect) I wouldn't sweat it at all because there's over a million AR manufactures and more seeming to come out of the woodwork every day. So with that said I would hope the chances you'd always be able to get a 'good AR lower' in Cali would always be there. The keyword there IS "hope"! At least I'd like to think that's there's no way they can put every manufacture of AR lowers on a list of "evil weapons".![]()
The best lower to start with is one that left the factory configured as a assault weapon.
Stripped lowers are not grandfathered assault weapons, even if they were made before a ban.
IMHO, anybody building off a stripped lower at this point in time is a fool.

Ok, I'll be the first fool to call BS on this advice. Hopefully you meant something you didn't actually type.IMHO, anybody building off a stripped lower at this point in time is a fool.
I agree that Mega lowers have the cleanest machining and best finish (that I have seen).
But my concern with Mega is that I have seen 2 different Mega lowers where Mil Spec magazines will not fit properly in them. The mag wells were way too tight.
No one seems to complain about this. But when Mega was contacted, they were familiar with the issue and swapped out the lowers. If I remember correctly, you can see how the newer lowers were machined slightly differently inside the mag well.
