Are you sure it is an actual gzip file? You refer to gzip, 7-zip, and
unzip in your post -- these are all different compression formats. Just
because the file is *named* .gz doesn't necessarily mean it is a gzip file.
Try this:
if1 = gzip.open(f1, 'rb')
print repr(if1.read())
print if1.size, if1.crc, if1.name
and see what they say.
