“they were a prime force behind the Heller case also”

Sorry to bring you back to reality, the NRA did nothing for Heller, in fact they attempted to scuttle the case.

Only after is was won, did the NRA start crowing. You obviously only read the NRA propaganda.... Goebbels I mean Kane is calling on line one....

Facts are stubborn things. Here is the Amicus brief that the NRA filed in support of Heller:

Initially the NRA was against this going to the Supreme Court because they thought this would be shot down and therefore set back our second amendment rights. Let's keep in mind when this suit was first contemplated. In 2002. At that time, Sandra Day O'Connor was still sitting on the bench. If it would have been brought while she was still on the bench, there's a good chance it would not have went in our favor.
