There's got to be several ARs with side-fold stocks.

Yeah, but you can't walk into a normal gun shop and buy a HK416C or Z-M LR300 like you can (well, could up until recently) the Mini-14, so I guess it was chosen because it is relatively easy to acquire

She's buying full-auto off the black market, normal gun shop is not where she's going.
