The image doesn't really make much sense. Even if it's in the impact stage, you should at least see a compressed spring. I doubt it'd trigger without one, with just the screw enclosed flush (or even caved in) in the nose. You'd have to heavily rely on weight to overcome the inertia force driving the screw out upon impact and break open the nose to push the screw back into the primary explosive.
And I can't stress enough how nice it would be if we'd start seeing some actual DIY fuzes with say piezo igniters from gas lighters or even just a clump of matches rubbing against some cleverly designed enclosing striker surface, instead of the usual primers that aren't quite that accessible outside the US.
