Political wing of the IRA. That's interesting. The two bastards in government at present were two of the biggest bastards in the IRA during the troubles.
Fucking Adams and MacGuiness were lucky they were never seen because the bastards would have been shot. Many many squaddies had their faces etched in their minds with the instruction to shoot on sight if ever the cowardly shitbags were ever to show their faces.
Adams was in charge of the Belfast "Brigade" and MacGuiness was one of their most succesful gunmen.
It was said that he was the bastard that fired the first shot on Bloody Sunday. That is why some of the protesters were found with bullet wounds in their backs. Armalite rounds rather than the standard SLR rounds that the British Army used in those days.

McGuinness had two MI5 contacts that he was in touch with in the 1970's, the Provo's have been in touch with the London Government regularly since the Troubles began, including that ultra-secret meeting in Cheyne Walk in London between the IRA and MI5 in the early-1970's. That meeting was so secret it couldn't even be held at MI5's offices, it had to be held in the basement of the house of one of the people who worked for MI5. McGuinness's two contacts said years later that he apparently told them he had had 'sleepless nights' over Bloody Sanday for years afterwards. This implied he did fire the first shot - as you state.

As for his and Adams' involvement in the IRA, they were both members of the IRA's Army Council up until 2005. Adams was the leader in the 1970's, and McGuiness has been leader about 4 times. Some say the last time McGuinness was the leader was in 2001 when he was also the Education Secretary in Northern Ireland. When they decommissioned their arms in 2005, and only did so because Irish America told them to (Senator Ted Kennedy was furious about the murder of Robert McCartney and the Northern Bank robbery), Adams and McGuinness left the Army Council - not in protest but because of the fact they weren't a militia anymore. The leader of the IRA from 1995-2005 died last year. He hadn't been attending many meeting throughout 2005 due to illness, and another prominent Sinn Fein figure attended in his place.

Adams denies ever being in the IRA and McGuinness claims to have left it in 1974. None of those things are true.
