Do regular pop up sights light up with the fixed A2 front post or do I need something else?

pop ups work.... but the carry handle is better.





or just get a red dot. and a back up sight.

You can also get a removable carry handle, or a removable cut carry handle.

You can actually run into very minor issues with a fixed carry handle and an F marked front sight base.

It's noting that a sight tool can't fix though.

Cdnn usually has detachable handles for around $30. Some places charge a lot for them. My next upper will be a fixed. I'm done with my ray gun phase and enjoy kiss guns a lot more these days.

Number 6 wore a chopped handle before I sold her.

Windham Weaponry does sell some upper assemblies with detachable carrying handles. I have a couple of their 20" Gov't profile barreled uppers with the detachable carrying handles.
