If you choose the kit with the mount, it will put your scope at lower 1/3rd co-witness, meaning that the scope will be high enough that while the sights will be visible in the scope view, they will be below the reticle.

This depends on the height of your rail and the height of yout mount. There is a good chance that the front sight post will be visible in your field of view, but you may be able to get the center of the reticle above your post with a pretty high mount.
