UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

                                      Plaintiff-Appellee,

versus

MACARIO LOPEZ,

                                      Defendant-Appellant.

                       --------------------
          Appeal from the United States District Court
               for the Southern District of Texas
                     USDC No. C-02-CR-322-1
                       --------------------

Before HIGGINBOTHAM, DAVIS and PRADO, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     Marcario Lopez appeals his guilty-plea conviction for being

a felon in possession of a firearm.    Lopez contends that the

district court erred by enhancing his sentence under U.S.S.G.

§ 2K2.1(b)(5) for using or possessing a firearm in connection

with another felony offense.    He also asserts that 18 U.S.C.

§ 922(g) is unconstitutional because it does not require a

substantial effect on interstate commerce.



     *
        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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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.
                           No. 03-40461
                                -2-

     The district court determined that Lopez had raised his

shirt to reveal a firearm during a confrontation in which Lopez

had vandalized someone’s car and the men with Lopez had assaulted

someone.   The court concluded that this display of the weapon was

done in a threatening manner and constituted an aggravated

assault under Texas Penal Code § 22.02.   Considering the totality

of the circumstances, we find that this determination is not

clearly erroneous and that the district court did not err in

applying the enhancement in U.S.S.G. § 2K2.1(b)(5).   See United

States v. Stevenson, 126 F.3d 662, 664 (5th Cir. 1997); Edwards

v. State, 57 S.W.3d 677, 680 (Tex. App.–Beaumont 2001, pet

ref’d); Tanksley v. State, 656 S.W.2d 194, 195-96 (Tex.

App.–Austin 1983, no pet.).

     Lopez concedes that his argument that 18 U.S.C. § 922(g) is

unconstitutional under the Commerce Clause is foreclosed by

circuit precedent.   He raises the issue to preserve possible

Supreme Court review.   As we have repeatedly held, the

“constitutionality of § 922(g) is not open to question.”     See

United States v. Daugherty, 264 F.3d 513, 517 (5th Cir. 2001),

cert. denied, 534 U.S. 1150 (2002); see also United States v.

Lee, 310 F.3d 787, 788-89 (5th Cir. 2002).

     AFFIRMED.
