Before DeMOSS, BENAVIDES, and STEWART, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     Ozie Laquenten Sampson (“Sampson”) appeals his guilty-plea

conviction and sentence for being a felon in possession of a

firearm, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1).    He contends that

the district court erred by permitting the Government to meet its

burden of proof on a disputed sentencing factor by relying on the

presentence report (“PSR”) and that the factual basis for the

“interstate commerce” element of the offense of conviction was


     *
        Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined
that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent
except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.
R. 47.5.4.

                                -2-

insufficient to support the guilty plea.    He concedes that these

issues are foreclosed by this court’s precedent, but he seeks to

preserve the issues for Supreme Court review.

     In the absence of any evidence that the information in the

PSR was materially untrue, the district court did not err in

finding the PSR reliable and adopting the factual findings

therein for sentencing purposes.    See United States v. Davis, 76

F.3d 82, 84 (5th Cir. 1996).

     We have held that 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1)’s interstate

commerce element is satisfied by the possession of a firearm that

was manufactured in a different state or country.    United States

v. Daugherty, 264 F.3d 513, 518 & n.12 (5th Cir. 2001), cert.

denied, 122 S. Ct. 1113 (2002).    This element is satisfied

because the firearm possessed by Sampson previously traveled in

interstate commerce.   See United States v. Rawls, 85 F.3d 240,

242-43 (5th Cir. 1996).   As one panel of this court may not

overrule or ignore a prior panel decision, see United States v.

Ruiz, 180 F.3d 675, 676 (5th Cir. 1999), this issue is

foreclosed.

     AFFIRMED.
