I'll say this - the company that can build a 1913 stock which can sit low, but have an adjustable riser that is easy to adjust and can adjust LOP AND be 16 oz or less can present a huge advantage to the AK and VZ crowd.

Stormwerks makes a couple of straight-line stock / receiver adaptors for the Vz58 that allow up & down adjustment of the butt stock, either with a picatinny or bolt on (e.g.: an AR buffer with a pig nose adaptor) interface. Of course there are many butt stocks that have adjustable cheek risers & LOP.

There are several buffer tube options that fit the bill, but yes, not aware of a 1913 one -- however, there are buffer tube to 1913 adapters.

Buffer tubes are large and round so they put your cheek too high typically - especially in the VZ.

And… can fold.  The strike industries stock is almost there.

True, but you can always run a slimmer stock on the tube and/or can also often cant the gun 15-20* into your face (kick bottom out from you face) for less face smashing to get decent iron sight acquisition...  If prone, you can often cant your head more atop the stock to get necessary alignment while keeping your weapon and sight system vertical. 

And yes, buffer tubes are rarely ever able to fold to 180* to lock open on universal hinges on non-AR platforms... 

Like all things, there's compromises that can be made -- your call on whether they're acceptable.
