I'm a bit (!) behing in my mailing lists, but in case you haven't found
one yet, or for anyone else:

Netgear A6210  AC1200 USB 3.0

avialable on newegg and amazon

Models with and without USB cable.  I like the one with the cable since
you then place the antenna in a better spot than sticking out of a front
or rear USB port.

Works here OOTB Slackware64-current (15.0 dev). Uses mt76x2u module
(MediaTek chipset).
