I don't think it was ever sold as in a "kit".

I've been reading comments for this lens from Stan's
site and it's been getting good reviews. Any other
comments you guys want to add?
Can't wait to try it out.
I think you'll love the lens. I really liked mine, until I eventually
decided I needed a little more reach, eventually buying a 28-105 in
its place. Of course that was back in film days. But even with
digital the 28-70 f/4 ought to be a pretty good lens.
If you put a filter on it, make sure it's a good one. I had a cheap
UV on mine and noticed some blooming in bright light. I switched to a
nicer Hoya Multi Coated UV, and the blooming issue went away. It's a
very sharp lens, especially considering that it's not one of the more
expensive ones out there. It's definately the best AF "kit" zoom
Pentax ever made.
