By his plea of guilty, defendant was convicted of carrying a concealed weapon, CL 1948, §750.227 (Stat Ann 1962 Rev § 28.424), and was sentenced to a term of 3 to 5 years. On appeal, he contends he was illegally arrested and searched; he was carrying the -weapon for self-protection; his *601plea was improperly accepted; and the trial court abused its discretion in sentencing him to a term of 3 to 5 years.

We find no support in the record for defendant’s claims that he was illegally arrested and searched. If the record supported defendant’s contention that he was carrying the weapon for self-protection, which it does not, no defense would be established thereby. The record demonstrates compliance with GOB 1963, 785.3 and the sentence imposed was within the statutory limits.

Affirmed.
