I believe as it is right now is pretty balanced.
The reason cops don't lose their weapons upon dying is because they need them to perform their basic gameplay activities. 6/10 times you will have to use force, either to pop a tire or to down right eliminate the "threat to life" target. On top of that cop pay is SIGNIFICANTLY less then what a criminal makes as well as it takes a lot more effort.
Criminals on the other hand can fully rob the bank without using any guns and get a good sum of cash, then just stay out of the main city, drop wanted and repeat, easy as that. If they don't have weapons it's an even bigger bonus, because following the current (stupid) rules, you cannot shoot a unarmed suspect that's fleeing unless it's been like 5 minutes or whatever. So it even works in your favor if you don't have a weapon equipped.
If you're IQ is above 10 points you can also just get a measly colt pistol, rob stores with that... Rob bank w/o any weapons and if cops show up, just pretend like you're unarmed and it'll make it easier to flee.
