Before WOLLMAN, GRUENDER, and BENTON, Circuit Judges.
                       ____________

PER CURIAM.

      Jermaine Arrington appeals the district court’s1 denial of his 18 U.S.C.
§ 3582(c)(2) sentence-reduction motion based on the Fair Sentencing Act of 2010


      1
      The Honorable Nanette K. Laughrey, United States District Judge for the
Western District of Missouri.
(FSA). We conclude that Arrington was not entitled to a reduction, as his Guidelines
sentencing range was calculated based on his unlawful possession of a firearm, see
U.S.S.G. § 2K2.1, which was not affected by any provision of the FSA. See 18
U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (court may reduce prison term of defendant who has been
sentenced based on sentencing range that has subsequently been lowered by
Sentencing Commission); United States v. Tolliver, 570 F.3d 1062, 1066-67 (8th Cir.
2009) (§ 3582(c)(2) allows sentence reduction only when amendment lowers
applicable Guidelines range).

      Accordingly, the judgment is affirmed. Counsel’s motion to withdraw is
granted.
