My take on the legal situation is that if it's a righteous shooting, no criminal charges will be brought. The police usually do not arrest people without a CHL for having a handgun in that circumstance.
If you give a weapon to a person and he shoots someone without justification or damages property, you are almost certainly going to be named in a lawsuit, even if the plaintiff does not prevail against you.

Re: 2GGs vs. 1BG Scenario
Two points of view on this:
1. If you're justified in shooting, it's over real fast one way or another. You probably would not have time to unholster and hand a weapon to another person who is in an unknown emotional state.
2. It's dangerous to have multiple armed people in a high-stress situation. Cops sometimes shoot each other in such situations.
