Define representing...

Was he a card carrying member of the N.R.A. Probably. I suspect that being a member simply requires sending in a check. On the other hand, if by 'representing' you mean advocating in public on behalf of the N.R.A., then no. When he developed alzheimers, his public appearances ended. This is why Moore went to Heston's home, rather than confront him in public.

Only knowing Moore from his films, I think it safe to write that he prefers public confrontations - they create more news. Plus, it allows Moore to draw conclusions for his audience when the subject says "no comment."

Moore turning up at Heston's home should have been the first red flag. Moore tends to "show up" because his targets have little time prepare. He shows up to challenge a man in the early stages of alzheimers. Moore, his films, and his politics are certainly debatable. I would have thought, however, that not debatable is showing up at a man's house who is in the early stages of a non-curable mentally degenerative disease and challenging him to defend his position. Apparently, I was incorrect.
