Fairly inexpensive.
Craptastic! Why not just teach her to shoot the Glock?

The rifle is so slim, and lightwieght I often find myself monkeying around with it, lamenting the fact that I have all this extra crap hanging off both my work, and personal rifles...

Eitherway, if you already have an AR, then get her an AR too....Same Mags, Same ammo, interchangable kit capabilities, same spare parts, same knowledge/tools/experience to maintain.

No need buying a SLR-8 (HK Civi G36), mini-14 (Good rifles though), etc. and then having to buy a whole new set of mags, spare parts, etc.

Gun and gear compatability is just plain good sense.
Concur!
