Best one I can remember, easiest to forget. I once handed my shotgun to a B-I-L that he wanted to buy. Hadn't handled it in a couple of years. Handed it to him at a full kitchen table of family. He's better, and younger than me, and he racked it 5 times and 5 shells fell out. I felt lower than dirt. I won't do that again----- I hope!!!

No matter how tempting, don't ever look down the barrel to see if its loaded.

Don’t take your guns to town.
Actually...not to join the popular thing, but Treat every gun as if it’s loaded. I’ve handled several guns of my own that I absolutely KNEW were unloaded. Except they weren’t.

In one of the nearest gun shops, there is a .50 cal ammo can, over half-full of ammo in assorted calibers. The sign on the can states "bullets from empty guns". So,yes, I'll add to the always check pile.
