Onlt time I would CONSIDER doing something like this would be in a SHTF situation. Though I supose I could alway's request it from the cops after the investigation is over.

This is very simple:
1. The gun is evidence against the bad guy, so you want the police to see it. 2. You only move it, if it is necessary for your safety. That is a tactical question. a. unconscious people can wake up and shoot you, even if you have them covered. b. Is he really dead or unconscious, such that when you reach to the person, they will grab you? Thus, there are tactical risks in leaving the gun or trying to get it. However, just taking it for fun would weaken your case that the BG is a BG. One might suggest calling the law and taking a position that gives you some advantage over the suspect as you wait for the law. One might argue for fleeing if you are in contact with the dispatcher and telling them that you are doing such for your own safety.
