As Dottore said... don't try a deck gun attack if there are escorts present. You'll be toast in no time.

If you encounter single armed merchants you can attack from a distance with the deck gun. But only do so head on... no boradside attack. They'll fire at you but from what I've encountered they aren't all that accurate. Aim for their guns and take them out, then you can press on and sink em. I've done this quite a few times with success. I've taken hits but repairs were made and no crew injured or killed.
