I think in that moment, Nick could not have reacted differently. She sprung the whole "I'm a hexenbiest" so suddenly he went on defense mode and pulled his gun out. Nick was always going to get the initial reaction wrong and everything escalated from there. Some of the differences between finding out his girlfriends are hexenbiests were that he Rosalee talked him down after his initial angry reaction when finding out Adalind's powers were back. He already knew Adalind was a hexenbiestnl naturally. He wasn't truly committed to Adalind and they had a son together. Adalind was very submission towards him and was more desperate to hang on to him than a seething Juliette, who tragically had none of the above mentioned points to help her, that and the fact that Nick had already learnt from his mistake with Juliette and seemed to apply that lesson with Adalind. He wanted her to trust him enough to be open about her powers and by then he was over the whole hexenbiest thing.

And that uncertainty helped him take a calmer approach to his situation with Adalind.
That's why I didn't agree with the posters who said Nick was a hypocrite for handling Adalind's Hexenbiest different from Juliette's. I assumed he handled Adalind the way he did because of Juliette. Nick knew what not to do this time in terms of his reaction so I viewed that as a moment of growth rather than hypocrisy or Adalind getting better treatment than Juliette just because she's Adalind.
