Generally speaking, the Democratic Party believes in significant restrictions on the right to bear arms ("strict" gun control), while the Republican party believes only in restrictions on criminal ownership of guns ("lax" gun control).
Note that both of the above are generalizations of the national Party platforms - local party platforms and the beliefs of individual politician members of both parties can differ widely from the national party platforms.

Probably yes, but few. They will probably be Left-winged. There probably are some, but they would be EXTREMELY few (to the best of my knowledge). Actually, the Libertarian Party officially supports the right to own firearms, but they also support abortion, homosexual marriage, marajuana, and just about everything else. Many conservatives (including me) who are against gun control shy away from the Libertarians for this reason.
Why is the Democratic Party against the Second Amendment?
The Democratic Party is not against the Second Amendment, it is merely for gun control.

Republicans usually charge that because Democrats are pro-gun control, that they are anti-second amendment, but those are two different things.
