I have to admit that I like JerryK's use of a chamber flag, and my method is similar but a little different. I bought a collection of rubber/plastic dummy rounds in various calibers. When I am unloading a pistol for storage, I always put one of the dummy rounds in and dry fire it to release the hammer/striker. If I put the dummy round in, I know it is safe to pull the trigger since it could not chamber it if there was a live round there. I also do this with my revolvers, putting dummy rounds in every chamber in the cylinder.
