The answer to this question largely depends on how the answerer
defines "pro-Second Amendment." For example, the American Hunters
and Shooters Association calls itself "pro-Second Amendment," but you
will look long and hard before you find any gun control law or
regulation which they actually oppose.
In terms of public perception, the NRA holds street cred as being
"pro-Second Amendment." You can look at their website, where they
are on record as supporting (among other things):
The national background check for firearms purchasers
The ban on firearms ownership for convicted felons
The federal Gun-Free School Zones law
The recently passed NICS Improvement Act (dubbed the Veterans
Disarmament Act by other pro-2A organizations).
