OK...IMHO you are doing well, but you are making a critical mistake in analysis at this stage of the game...

Thats is...you are focusing on each individual element of the incident instead of the totality of the circumstances....

Any individual element of any factual scenario can be attacked, twisted, digested, run up the flagpole and chopped down, but does that change the big picture?

here, you have a scenario where the following is purportedly uncontested: the police, in the course of their official duties and in the course of an investigation, went to the wrong residence where they knocked at the door. They were confronted with an armed intoxcicated man who pointed a gun at them. They arrested him.

Here is a premise: As a matter of common sense rules of life, one does not have the right to point a handgun at a police officer while intoxicated
