I too have thought along these lines with the same M57 platform. It could be sort of an Iron Curtain "Man From Uncle " gun.
I wasn't sure about the legality of having a set of components that could , if worked on in the wrong order or carried in the same tote, possibly become an SBR. ie: if you still had the old barrel along with the shoulder stock. I have seen the kits for 1911s in Sportsman's Guide so I'm guessing the responsibility for staying legal is with the individual. Caveat emptor.
I was also thinking about a 16.5" barrel and a shoulder stock on a PPS-43 SA but wondered about the point of diminishing returns with the x25. If a 9x19 worked well in the old Ruger carbines I think a Tok round would still have some powder left to burn in a legal length rifle barrel.
