This is kind of cryptic.  What are you actually asking or telling us?

If you want some dialog, you have to do your part.

I have an opportunity to buy a Singer 251.;I need a walking foot machine. I will pursue it if it is. Is a Singer 251 a walking foot machine? Simple question.

As previously mentioned, it is not a walking foot machine. Some of the best known Singer walking foot machines are the slower speed 111w155 and 156 (w/ large balance wheel pulley), as well as the higher speed 211w155 and 156 (w/ small pulley). There are also some older Singer walking foot machines that have whaat's known as a spring foot. These have a foot that simply follows the material as the feed dog pulls it back. They only had bottom feed. A proper walking foot machine has at least dual, if not triple feed.
