Get gas or gas compatible so you can add if desired. You sure don't need a 170A 220V mig for what you are using it for and you already have a stick. I assume you have 220V outlets near where you weld. If you weld inside , the wind is no factor. I weld sheet metal all the time with 135A 110V miller/gas. Gas is cheap'ish. Get one from Craigslist that someone never used much (which is most people). I have a 220V miller arc welder for structural.
Sorry, I know it's Thursday, but I just saw this.
