What lens Fit

[cameramanic]

This is probebly a question that has been asked before but i am quite new to rangefinder photography so here it is.
does the 35,and 135, fed lenses fit the Bessa L ?
I have a 50mm zorki that works on the bessa ok,
i have just bought a Fed 4 with 35,50, 135 lenses on e bay, for £51 should get them tommorow, ihope the 35 mm will fit the Bessa.

the 135 does fit without problem.

The 35's behind, however, is larger than JLo's and mostly likely won't fit properly hitting the shutter curtains or cause some problems with metering.

That is: the 35mm jupiter 12 has the large back element that interferes with metering or even the shutter. There actually was an older Fed 3,5:35mm that should fit without a problem.
