Do you guys have any recommendations for scopes on an A2.  I know ACOG is the shit, but it's also significantly expensive.  Any other recommendations don't involve crazy, goofy mounts?

You'd probably have more luck with this question if:

1.  You post in the optics forum.
2.  You say how far and what you're gonna shoot.

I like me some leupold and weaver, personally.

My first suggestion would be to swap your upper out for an A4.



Barring that, then the ARMS #2, #2EXT, the IOR Carry Handle Mount, or the Smith #1037.



For optics, if you want a fixed power scope, look at the Burris 4x20 Timberline.

What about the Colt 4x with BDC and integrated base orignally designed for mounting on the carry handle?

Yep, you may not want to hear it, but I would start with a flat top receiver if you want to go glass and do it right.
You don't say what your requirements are, but one that I'm looking at is the Vortex PST 1-4x.
It illuminates for CQB mode at 1x and is variable for mid range work. $500....mid range in price as well.
There's an MOA reticle and a MRAD reticle.
Handled one the other day.....waiting for a deal.

The TA01 is a some $$$ but it's worth every penny.  I found one used then added a two-stage trigger.  Great shooting rifle.

They are not made anymore and the refurbed surplus Israeli 3x21's for sale are not cheap.
