Yes, what he did was heroic and he was lucky nobody else got hurt. Because nobody else was hurt, the 'what ifs' don't matter. It would be an entirely different situation if the first guy had returned fire and then the guy inside started blasting people but that didn't happen so forget about it.
It should be clear that you are allowed to defend yourself and others if possible. However, you should be held responsible for the outcome, good or bad. If you fire 10 rounds and one hits a bystander, you should be charged with negligent homicide.
