Best Answer

Treat all guns as if they were loaded until YOU have checked them.

Never point a gun at anything you do not intend to destroy

Keep your finger off the trigger and out of the trigger guard until ready to shoot

Be sure of your target and the space beyond your target

There are others, but the above 4 are a good start. Always use eye and hearing protection, and shoot safe.
