Oregon vrs OEM blades

Hello, new to posting but long time reader.
I acquired a snapper rer 30126xs from a neighbor. Only got to use it two times before the big "C" got me. This year want to use it. The rider has been looked after by a mechanic son in law so it did start right up after sitting for 2 or 3 years. I always bag my grass and leaves and I found a bagger that goes on the mower. The blade is Oregon 199-112 with 2 holes for the air lift wings to be attached to.
OEM blade has 3 holes for air lift wings.
Anybody use a bagger with out wings. I know the 30" isn't a hi-vac?

I don't have anything like you have, but my 21" Snapper is 23 years old and still working great... I use the OEM blade and the wings installed, and it pretty much picks up everything much better with them on.. I have used it so much I am about to replace all 4 tires for the 3rd time... It's the self-propelled model...

try - "Oregon® Gator® G3™ 96-677 is your go-to lawn mower blade in all conditions including wet, dry, and sandy turf. Gator® G3™ blades offer superior mulching, fewer bag stops, and cleaner side discharge than the standard manufacturer blade. It’s not a replacement blade. It’s an upgrade."
