Condor is pretty much your only option with that price range. You may be able to get a Pantac or Flyee chest rig. Or maybe a smaller TAG PC.

Re: good molle plate carrier
CIRAS's are the best kind IMO. However last I checked a PANTAC CIRAS with pouches was like 230, maybe more.

Be awsare PANTAC is chinese gear, and while it is a good bit better than Condor, its still not up to the standards of american made gear like TAG, Mayflower, Eagle, and MSA PAraclete.

Re: good molle plate carrier
If your willing to spend an extra 30-50 you can get a TAG PC.
They dont have UCP, but ehre is a Tag PC for 110 http://www.opticsplanet.net/tactical-assault-gear-banshee-rifle-plate-carrier.html

i got one in ranger green a week ago, your more than welcome to take a look at it this weekend to see if it is to your liking
plus you get free shipping from optics planet instead of paying like $50 to get it shipped from overseas, and im more impressed with my TAG gear than my PANTAC stuff anyway

Re: good molle plate carrier
Yes, from personal experience i can say that its not for use, if i bought one it would be used for films. go the extra mile and spend a little extra money, you will be thankfull in the long run. Ask twitch, his gear is amazing, a little pricey, but still amazing.

Re: good molle plate carrier
Well, most retailers/manufacturers are getting rid of all of their ACU stuff (because it's being phased out) and you can find stuff really cheap in ACU. Here you go, and yes, you're welcome: http://www.cheaperthandirt.net/EAG114-1.html
That's new. If you want it in a different color, you've got to pay a LOT more. I paid $129 for mine in Khaki and it was pretty well used.
EDIT: That's technically not a plate carrier because it can't fit a rifle plate, but the original version could carry a front plate, and with an upgrade kit, a rear one. But it's still a great piece of gear and will last for a LONG time. Eagle stuff is really overbuilt (maybe a little bit TOO overbuilt), but it's not like the RRV is that heavy anyway, and at least it'll last forever.
