The Seven-Ups is a 1973 Crime-Drama starring Roy Scheider as the head of a unique unit of the NYPD called the Seven-Ups (Named so because all the criminals they catch get seven years or more in prison). The film is notable as being the only film directed by Philip D'Antoni, producer of Bullitt & The French Connection.

Smith & Wesson Model 36

Buddy Manucci's (Roy Scheider) main weapon in the film is a 5 shot Smith & Wesson Model 36 revolver. In one scene, he unrealistically fires 8 shots from it. The grips are aftermarket. They appear to be Herrets. Herrets was a semi-custom grip maker out of Twin Falls, Idaho for many decades and very popular with knowledgable shooters.
