Hello from Canada

Hello, I'm Tom, from the goose-infested maple wonderland that is Canada.
I own a Sony a6300 but don't own Pentax cameras. The only Pentax gear I have is an SMC Takumar 85mm f2.5 (v1) that's still in the mail.
I love manual lenses, especially vintage ones. I joined this forum because I've recently started collecting vintage lenses.
Currently, I own a sizable stash of lenses (for a university student, anyways) only two of which are AF lenses, the horrific, no-good, worse-than-soda-bottle-bottom Sony SELP1650, and the sharp-enough-to-be-of-some-use SEL55210.
My manual collection includes:
Kamlan 28mm f1.4, LOMO-T43 (ITM), 16KP PO-109-1A(ITM), Helios 77m-4 (in the mail), Helios 44-2 (84317335), Jupiter-9 (ITM), SMC-Takumar 85mm f2.5 (v1, ITM), Jupiter-11a (734556), Jupiter-37a (8016366), Carl Zeiss Jena 135mm f3.5 (9431699), Jupiter-21m (83019610), MC Tair-3 (photosniper 12, ITM), Spiratone Plura-coat Sharpshooter 400mm f6.3 (ITM)
Oh well, I spent way too much money on lenses.
I don't do post-processing mostly because I don't know how, also, I don't have time for that.
I will post photos once I figure out how to do so, which may very well be never.
Have a good day/noon/afternoon/night/whatever.

Aww, crap, lost the SMC Takumar 135mm f2.5 v1 to someone else, someone bid within 20 minutes of the auction ending, really?
Wait, did I say 85mm in the original post?
Welp, lack of sleep taking its toll.
Now I have no Pentax gear.
Brilliant.
Any suggestions on which Pentax lenses to look at?
Thanks!
