Looking for help - do take-up spools from FED-1 FED-2 FED-3 Zorki Zorki-C Zorki-4, work OK in early Leica LTM bodies?

Thank you for any help

I can't speak conclusively but a spool from a Zorki-4 at least will not work in a Barnack Leica body, they're significantly different in shape and diameter and my attempt just now almost ended in needing to use force to get the Zorki spool back out.

The FED-1 spools should work, but many later modes of both will not - they made a lot of variations. I bought a couple of spools from a Ukraine seller that were supposed to be for FED, but would not fit either my FED-1 or Zorki equivalent. Some of the Japanese spools from Leica clones fit also. Here's a discussion
