PER CURIAM:

            Antonio Lashawn Wright pleaded guilty to possession of a

firearm     as    a    convicted      felon,       in    violation    of    18     U.S.C.

§ 922(g)(1), 924(a)(2) (2000).              Wright was sentenced to 180 months

incarceration, 5 years of supervised release, and a $100 special

assessment.      Wright appeals, asserting the district court erred in

sentencing       him   as    an    armed   career       criminal    under    18    U.S.C.

§ 924(e).

            We     review     a    district    court’s       factual       findings    at

sentencing for clear error and its related legal conclusions,

including the application of the Sentencing Guidelines, de novo.

United States v. Daughtrey, 874 F.2d 213, 217 (4th Cir. 1989).

Wright’s assertion is meritless. The district court did not err in

sentencing Wright as an armed career criminal.                     18 U.S.C. § 924(e)

(2000); United States v. Johnson, 246 F.3d 330, 333-35 (4th Cir.),

cert. denied, 534 U.S. 884 (2001).

            Accordingly, we affirm Wright’s conviction and sentence.

We   dispense     with      oral    argument   because      the     facts    and    legal

contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the

court and argument would not aid the decisional process.



                                                                                 AFFIRMED
