German 88mm Pzgr 39 Base Fuses

Damn. My big round peg will not fit in my small round hole. Leave it the Germans to use two fuses when one would do. I thought I had done well in finding these base fuses that are marked for 8.8 cm PzGr. They do not fit my new KwK 43 PzGr 39. It is now my understanding that there are large and small cavities in 88mm PzGr projectiles. Does anyone have a small fuse for sale or trade for one of these? Thank you for your help. Steve
