Actually, that is a good reference for the CA law but when standing at the counter of any CA gun shop looking at the ARs for sale they all look, for the most part, the same as you would find in just about any other state. Sure, you pick them up and you will notice the bullet button but will not find any with crazy looking butt stocks to get around the laws here. The laws in CA are lame, strict and don't make things any safer but really don't change the appearance like the one in the original post.
