Han Solo is supposed to be a scoundrel, he's a damn smuggler. The bar they meet him in is described as "a wretched hive of scum and villainy".
George Lucas has an incredible talent for fucking up the intent of the author in a story that HE'S THE AUTHOR OF, it would be very funny if it weren't so annoying.
And even taken all that aside, he shot someone that pointed a gun at him and basically said "I am going to shoot you now". Clearly Han is in the right here for defending himself.
And the guy he worked for previously was described as a "vile gangster" two movies later.
TBF, Han was a smuggler around the time of ANH, but he got there by running drugs for Jabba's auntie for years... Han Solo was a plug first, and don't even get me started on the Chewie/Scooby thread.
