A. P. Harris appeals the denial of his motion to vacate his judgment and sentence for carrying a concealed weapon, to wit: a pistol. The motion was filed pursuant to Rule 3.850, Florida Rules of Criminal Procedure. Appellant contends that his conviction is invalid because a pistol is not a firearm.

We disagree. The First District has recently held that a pistol is a firearm within the meaning of Section § 790.001(6), Florida Statutes (1977). Martin v. State, 367 So.2d 1119 (Fla. 1st DCA 1979). We agree with our sister court and therefore affirm the trial court’s denial of appellant’s motion.
