looking for a self priming water pump

Ive been using a harbor freight 1/6 hp sump pump to supply my tankless co2 gen.
decided to do away with the rez and the co2 gen is hooked direct to tap.
I'm using the sub pump to water 50 plants.
it gets the job done but it's on the slow side.
I'm looking for a pump that can push out the
pressure that's self priming or a sub pump for 120v AC

here's the HF pump I'm using now.
this thing is bullet proof, it ran dry a few times for 20 minutes hooked to the co2 gen and fired right up after cooling off.
the other day I left it plugged in running dry over nite!
put it in cool water for 5 minutes and it runs like new.
for $63 you can't go wrong, it just needs to push 2Xs the pressure and it'd be great!

finally... mucho thankos senor catalina3899 :D
I'm not a big pump guy and kno i could order one of the $150plus pumps Ive looked at
and it would do it,
but probably would be way over kill at the same time.
