Quoted: Has anyone tried the PK-AV?
It may sound stupid but I really don't want an optic that I have to "get used to". I had great success with an Aimpoint on my AR. Once I tried the Eotech, I had a hard time due to my astigmatism and I just preferred a basic dot. I am thinking that the PK-AV may be more of what I am looking for.

I have a PK-AV on a Hungarian AK. I like it just fine, difference between the AS and the AV is:
1) The offset which you are aware of.
2) On the AS, the dot is black with the unit off/battery dead. On the AV when the power is off, there is no dot. Not the end of the world since you can use the iron sights with the unit mounted.
3) On the AS, you need special tools to adjust the zero and it's inconvenient due to the location of the adjustment screws. On the AV the scope is zeroed using conventional turret type dials.
I like my PK-AV. Not as popular as the PK-AS for some reason. I haven't used both, so I can't offer any 'this-over-that' advice. But I do like it.
