Seven Guns for the MacGregors ([Sette pistole per i MacGregor] Error: {{Lang-xx}}: text has italic markup (help)) is a Technicolor 1966 Italian spaghetti western. It is the directorial debut film of Franco Giraldi (here credited as Frank Garfield), who was Sergio Leone's assistant in A Fistful of Dollars.[1] The film gained a great commercial success and generated an immediate sequel, Up the MacGregors!, again directed by Giraldi[1] [2] and a later sequel More Dollars for the MacGregors.

Plot

The MacGregors, horse ranchers of Scottish descent, are underway to the market when they are robbed of their horses by a gang under the helm of a corrupt sheriff. One of the brothers infiltrates the gang but his first attempt tries to play them backfires.
