Option to not drop your gun upon death

To compare this to reality, I highly doubt a soldier will go up to a body and ask him to use his weapon, and he is not required to do so to be able to use the weapon.

The same is in Crossfire, a player will not have to ask to take a weapon from a dead person. Of course, people are angry about this.

But what do you lose by having someone steal your gun?

Your gun does NOT take damage when someone else uses it, so that eliminates that factor.

You are not robbed of your weapon because your body is dead when the player picks up a gun, so that eliminates that.

So what is left is the factor that you are angry about: The fact that the player is able to hold the gun without buying it.

Even if the player gained the gun permanently by picking it up, it would not harm your account one bit. However, you would be enraged that the player was able to obtain the gun for free, but you had to pay.

However, we are talking about gaining a gun temporarily, so that's somewhat irrelevant to what will be said next.

When a player picks up a gun, he only obtains it for the remainder of the game or until he dies. He will not be able to use it for a very lengthy amount of time, so I don't understand how you will become angry about a person using it for such a short amount of time (He is bound to die within seconds of picking your gun up.)

If you are, indeed, angry about a player being able to use your gun, which will not take damage, for a few seconds, then what is the problem with letting someone try out a gun for a short amount of time, and with no damage to you? Considering you are dead, he really does not need to ask for your gun, as your dead body is not in use of it (if you believe it is, then you've got quite a problem).

In addition, your bought gun will not "simply fill up a room", as players die very often, and guns on the ground are sometimes ignored (unless you are playing a 1 v 1 game, in which case, it will more than likely happen.)

TL;DR Section

Also, very simply, you are dead, and dead people have no control over their gun after they die.

So no, I don't think you should have the option to toggle gun drop on and off.
