You show me a .223 M1 or M1A, and I'll eat my hat.
There are 43 hi-point dealers listed in Ca. which means you can buy something like this for half the price of a Berretta StormCX4 .
For the life of me I cannot figure out what makes guns illegal in CA.I found semi-autos with 30 round mags for sale,ie:

M1 Carbine
1) Reliability. I'd like to pass this rifle on later, or at least take my daughter shooting when she's twelve. Which is another 11+ years. This would be great for your Daughter to shoot. Its know for its Reliability.
2) Accuracy. Good enough not to have others laugh at you, in fact i bet you have a crowd around you just watching you shoot it.
3) Ease of cleaning. Yep
4) Cost. so it needs to be $1k or less. CMP has them for 500, there sold out now, but have many more to come, or buy new for 700 still under 1k
5) Legal in California. Yep, shipped to your door
6) .223 caliber. I'm not hard and fast on this caliber (not a pistol round)
Well its not .223, and i guess its a pistol rd maybe. Don't know any pistols that shoot it.
6a) , but I want a centerfire rifle round Yep
6b)that is relatively cheap and low recoil. Yep and Yep
7) Semi-auto preferred. Yep
8) Options other than an AR are greatly preferred. Its not a AR
To Lashlarue, No mags over 10 are allowed to be sold period. Most sites have a couple of lines in small print that say "shipped with 10rd mag, if ordering from ca". Unless of course there shipping them illegally

The Ruger Mini-14 would seem to meet all of your requirements. I've found the Mini-14 to be an excellent little carbine.

I think you should pack up all your stuff.
Sell your house.
Buy a new house in a free state.
Then buy an AR you really like.

Mini-14 fun functional, .223
As for your daughter, how 'bout a single shot .22 caliber rifle made especially for
the young beginners.
My Pop's got an old Winchester single shot and shortened the stock. Had to load 1 at a time then close the bolt and pull back the big knob to cock it aim and fire. I got to shoot at nickels when I was 5 years old, and by 12 i was shooting the larger stuff with success, saftey lessons already under my belt.

If it doesnt have to be a .223 I recommend a m1 garand. You should be able to find one for under 1000 and you can get surplus ammo from this site www.ammoman.com, when they have it, or anyone that sells surplus ammo.
or maybe you can get into reloading which saves me tons of money when it comes to buying ammo.

Bolt action Remington 700 ADL in .270
The most acurate bolt action I have owned up to this point is my Remington 700 ADL chambered in .270.

Help Zeedee find a gun
Zeedee, hi, my name is Jennifer. I work for ammoandguns.com, the site that Realmswalker gave you. (BTW, thanks, Realmswalker!) Our retail location isn't TOOOOO far from you. We're in Bakersfield, and the retail store is Second Amendment Sports. Our retail store has more options to offer than our ecommerce site, plus you get to handle the guns to see if they really fit your daughter well. We have a large staff of sales people who could help you. My recommendation is Thomas. If you feel like checking us out, I know Thomas can match her up with a great firearm for HER needs. Of course, if you decide to purchase off of ammoandguns.com, my feelings won't be hurt, either) Either way, if you have questions for either Second Amendment Sports or AmmoAndGuns.com, please feel free to call me, and I'll make sure that you are taken care of! 661-323-4512 ext. 118 (if you'd like to visit our store site, it's http://www.2ndamendmentsports.com) Have a great day!
