So, what would you recommend (and how would you price) a nice (but not pristine) simplest and easiest (with respect to useability, maintenance kits, and repair effort) SP primary and secondary set for day-to-day knockabout use?
No need for environmental sealing. Streams and rivers. If it fails I'll either go to my second or just stand up.

An Updated G250 now I'd have to sell for at least @ $140 just to recoup costs.

There is a deal! But I'm good with 250's and 17's
However, I'm looking for something more like an MK10 or earlier. If you had to choose one old-school retro primary and a secondary that pairs perfectly, what would that pair be?
Edit:
Maybe this should be a new thread?

@lowviz - for the depths you are talking, I'd go with a MK-2 and a 109/156 (maybe a 108HP). Simple & robust...
FWIW - the MK-2 is on my pony for ice with a 156. For the MK-2, you can get old ones for free..... btdt.
108Hp has only a hockey puck seat (which you can flip). It is unbalanced however, and paired with the MK-2, both are unbalanced.
A MK-5 or MK-10 adds a balanced first. VDH has kits for both as they are discontinued.

I'd prefer to stick with SP as I'm so heavily invested already...
MK-2 with a 109 sounds like something I'm looking for. I mean, after all, if one services his/her own SP regs shouldn't this combo be a mandatory rite of passage?
Yeah, thanks, you helped put it to words. That is what I'm looking for...
