would love to get that stock adaptor
unfortunately i had to order it to TRY IT. yeah its a little bit short and the cheek weld isnt good except if your using iron sights.
Any red dot will be too high to have a good cheek weld on that stock.
Or take what you have and do something like this! You forend can have a Bi pod attached 
This build remind me of a mix between SVD and some sort of semi auto modern sniper. With The AK front sight it would look neat. Could always fade hydro dip the stock in a wood grain maybe. Get the padded SVD cheek rest and you would have a pretty decent clone! I tried to do this but my scope ran out of adjustment and the original CSA mount is awful for this. I am gathering more parts to attempt this tho again!
IF you cant find a PSOP you could do orignal CSA mount with red dot, Still looks good!

that build is really unique, i like it but ill try to make my vz58 look like ak74-ak12 i think.
Might buy another vz58 sometimes... maybe a cz858 i dont know
Zahal has a sick Digital camo stock by the way

If your buddy can machine a good magpul stock mount he might be able to make money making a pile of them. I'm sure there are a bunch guys interested.

I am not fussed with whatever mods people want to do to their rifles but I don't understand why folks are trying to make cosmetic changes to a perfectly good rifle to make it look like something else. I support your right to make the mods, I just wouldn't bother.
Dont get me wrong i like the vz58.
Just prefer the look of an AK, AK47,74,AKM,MAK90,AK12
Every mods im making might not be OEM quality but it wont be a rattling POS. Everything im doing involves drawings, precises measures, working with a machinist i have every tools i need to make something solid. Then ill cerakote the final product.
I never understood the obsession with the AK when you have a better rifle IMO. I'd take a VZ over an AK any day. But I would also take an AR15 over both
Now ill have a better rifle looking like an AK.

Nothing wrong with changing things up! I'm just saying, I liked my CZ858 way better than my AK and other AKs I have shot. It has a milled receiver and it is still lighter than a stamped AK47.
I can buy either rifle here and I would way rather have a VZ58. An AK47 was the first rifle I bought when I moved here because I could never get one in Canada, so I understand the appeal.
You can lighten an AK {see Jim Fuller front end job for an example}, but you can't easily build the AK's extra degree of ruggedness into the VZ58, nor can you rub a lamp and ask a genie to grant it the AK's vastly superior aftermarket and knowledge base.
Also consider that there are lots of modern AK derivatives around, like the SIG 556 or AK-12, but no one has remixed the Vz58 design or done much with it at all beyond adding rails and AR stocks.
