I guess the "good guy with a gun" theory is out the window, eh?

It's not a clear good guy with a gun situation. It's a likely drunk guy out of his own jurisdiction, not in uniform and ignoring police instructions kind of theory!

It doesn’t apply since both men were drunk, aggressive and armed. Even if the deputy didn’t start the fight he was out drinking at three in the morning while carrying which is extremely stupid and generally illegal. He then was dumb enough to not drop the gun after repeated orders to do so and he’s lucky to be alive.
