I haven’t claimed my BTG yet but from what I’ve read Coinimi looks the best bet to do it safely. Input your old private keys that had bitcoin associated with them at the fork & then your Coinimi account will be credited with BTG.

Personally I’d then move them to bittrex & exchange for bitcoin (exactly what I did with my BCH - but moved from Electron Cash to bittrex instead).

 I had Bitcoin in my electrum wallet at the time of the fork but the passphrase wasn't compatible with Coinomi wallet so I had to sweep them.  It was easy to do, Electrum shows you the private key as a QR code and you can scan it into Coinomi on your phone.  Fees for the weep were negligible.  While you're at it, get your Bitcore too.

edit: I moved my Bitcoin out of the address before making the claims.
