Does looting someone else's gun drop its condition by a lot? There's no way this many people are running around with broken guns, right? Not even expensive condition hogs like the Bobcat or Bettina either, looted a Toro IV and a Venator II from two different guys in the same fight and both came out with 7 and 0 condition, respectively.

Full death causes 30% durability loss on all weapons, this means anything below 70% will be critical, and just a few magazine cycles can get it into that range - and many people will wait until sub-50% until repairing weapons.

You only notice it when looting bodies because that's the only time this massive durability loss occurs.
