Republicans would ban guns if they could. They know their voter base is heavily pro-gun though, so that's why they don't try. Many democrats vote against gun control as well for this very reason, particularly those in red states.
Plus Republicans are more diverse than Democrats. There are social conservatives, neo-conservatives, paleo-conservatives, libertarian-conservatives, moderates, etc.
