I have an A1 upper that has the round assist. Can I easily swap it out for a teardrop version? Are the internals and springs compatiable?

every thing is the same, just swap out the teardrop part

How hard are the teardrop assists to find?  Anyone have a link?

There are old tear drops and new tear drops.  The older ones are thinner towards the outside of the flat part.  Not sure if that makes sense or not.  The newer ones are more consistent thickness on the "teardrop" part.  If you want a newer style (Not retro original) I have one I can send you - it is stripped though, no spring or pawl etc.

If anyone needs the newer style one, I bought mine at Fulton Arms.
