I think it just reinforces the fact that she has Mal's back.

She wouldn't have shot Mal...only Simon...

I agree. Remember in the part of one episode that was cut where Simon asks Zoe what she'd do if Mal ordered her to shoot him and she answers clearly... that she'd shoot him.

Or it was an instinctive reaction to Mal going into agressive mode. Mal in any form of fight = Zoe ready to get his back.

Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.

I imagine it was just instinct, although perhaps she was thinking just pulling the gun and pointing it in the general direction of a fray would make both of 'em stop fighting.

I think it was a reflex born from so many fights that she and him had been through. That and I don't think Zoe was expecting Mal to do what he did and it triggered her to reach for her gun in an almost conditioned response to trouble. That point in the movie reflected how explosive and unpredictable that moment was to everybody, even Zoe. She had no idea what was going to happen and she wanted to be ready for anything.
