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.
