Depending on who you talk to there can be 3-10 "fundamental' rules. Basics are

1. ALWAYS keep the gun pointed in a safe direction.

2. ALWAYS keep your finger off the trigger until ready to shoot

3. ALWAYS keep the gun unloaded until ready to use. 4. ALWAYS treat every gun as if it were loaded. 5. ALWAYS know your target and what is behind it
