Only the original magazine will work. You might be able to use a 7.62x45 Vz52 magazine which are much more common.
 
Some work, some have to be tweaked. I think someone already mentioned that he modified some with a spacer at the rear to allow for the shorter round.
This entails modifying the follower but I don't know by how much and how.
PP.
 
I have owned a VZ 52/57 for 2 years now chambered in 7.62x39 and have yet been able to find any spare mags aside from buying another rifle.

I have a machinist buddy and to make it look like he is working on slack days he has been trying to make me a duplicate with little success but he is getting there. Ill let you know if success is ever reached.
