About Stephen Gutowski
Stephen Gutowski is a firearms journalist and the founder of The Reload, a subscription-based publication focused on gun politics and policy that he launched in early 2021. He has written about guns and politics since founding his first publication in 2009, and he spent almost seven years as the gun beat reporter at The Washington Free Beacon before going independent. Gutowski is also a certified firearms instructor, and The Reload was created in part to counter what he sees as misinformation about firearms in mainstream media.
His work has appeared in The Atlantic, National Review, The Dispatch, AmmoLand and The Washington Examiner Magazine, and his reporting has been cited by CNBC, Fox News, The New York Times, The Washington Post, NPR and ABC News. NPR has described The Reload as a pro-Second Amendment gun issue publication, and it pairs written analysis with a regular podcast. The Second Amendment Foundation named him Journalist of the Year in 2016 and again in 2021.
