I'm a Commiefornia resident. Competition is NOT limited. Most manufacturers make a CA legal version, and beyond that I'd say the majority of us buy whatever upper we want, from whatever vendor, and we buy a stripped low which we assemble ourselves.
It sucks and we have to use a weird grip, but its really not that hard to acquire an AR. The problem we have is pretty close to the same problem everyone has, lack of inventory of the best ARs and uppers. BCM, DD, LMT, etc. are not available.
It's not really a problem for me, I have a bunch of ARs and ammo, but it sucks for people who waited too long to buy. I'm putting one together for a very close friend, but obtaining good parts is a problem. I have lots of redundant parts so I'm going to give him some stuff out of my parts inventory to finish his rifle. I've got some extra BCGs for instance.
