You are correct. And Mr. Martin may have been attempting to defend himself against someone who threatened him with a gun. Despite what you said, it is reasonable to believe that one's life is threatened when someone approaches you with a gun. Since we don't really know the manner in which Zimmerman approached Martin and how the fight started, it's not possible to know which one was actually defending themselves. I'm curious why you seem to be giving the benefit of the doubt to Zimmerman.
You have to give the benefit of the doubt to Zimmerman if only for the fact that in this country you are innocent until proven guilty. And so far, there is no evidence to point to Zimmerman's gun coming out until after the altercation began.
