I've been looking at the HRT RAC Plate Carrier, they look solid and have that quick-release.
I currently run an Esstac Daeodon ASS. It's very well-made, and is comfy with the pontoons installed. The Esstac front panels are awesome, great retention and draw/reindexing speed. Without the pontoons it conceals decently under a jacket, but the limiting factor to that will always be how thick your plates are. I can slide it on & off in seconds for home defense. It is low-profile and is best when you just need plates, 3 mags, and a TQ like how I run it during Tactical Games matches. My biggest gripe with it is how the entire back is covered in velcro. I don't run a velcro cumberbund, and my patch collection is best left off of the competition scene...
I find myself wanting something more substantial in addition to it. More mags, a radio, blow-out pouch, potential provision for side plates. Covered mags for the elements & proning out in the dirt. Option to attach back panels for hydration, ect. Hence the RAC.
