Make the Police suffer loss

There is no reward with being police but when you are a criminal you usually have contra and gain money all the time which makes it cheap and easy to carry weapons as a criminal, however its not as easy for an officer. 

Police also dont pay for their own weapons in real life, its something the force pays. However if criminals were using pistols more I could definitely see a reason to remove the heavy firearms for the police.

Police Officers have a salary, tickets and carjacks and can put cars in the Garage so people have to pay up to around 2k$, not to mention they can freely harass and randomly arrest people.

You also aren't really correct with the "gaining money all the time" thing -- When 11 fully armed cops show up to a single person making contra, I wouldn't say it's a balanced fight. Cops raid for contra all the time, so you are at the same risk as an officer, if not less.

For your "police don't buy guns IRL" point, this is semi-serious and since this thread is more about the cops blatantly ignoring the safety of their own life with no negative results, they should have some sort of punishment when it comes to monetary gain or to just lose money on death.

When a cop dies, he grabs another gun, when a criminal dies, he loses one.
