The new HSM Sigma lenses coming out are having OS left in for the Pentax and Sony mounts now. You have to switch either the inbody SR or HSM off as the 2 cannot be used together.the os wont be on the pentax version as there is no need for it as sr is built in to the body of the k7,
I suppose it's to save money on manufacturing costs ... not sure if this lens is one of them mind you.

From a production point of view it is probably less expensive to build every thing the same. Rather than have a separate production line to leave things out.

I have had the Pentax DA 17-70 f/4 SDM for a few weeks now and think it is excellent. You might consider it also.

Or the pentax DA 16-45 f/4 but the kitlens of pentax are also quite good so it might be better to spend some money on some lenses in another range.
About the OS, it's already said before but pentax has his OS (SR) build-in in the body so every lens has OS.
