The court concluded that defendant was not entitled to a justification defense and the district court did not clearly err in applying a four-level sentencing enhancement under U.S.S.G. 2K2.1(b)(6) based on its finding that defendant possessed the firearm in connection with another felony. Further, defendant's sentence was substantively reasonable. Accordingly, the court affirmed the judgment of the district court.
