Lessner Antwon Gilliard pleaded guilty to possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1) (2000). The maximum penalty for that offense is ten years. 18 U.S.C. § 924(a)(2) (2000). Gilliard was sentenced to seventy months in prison, to be served consecutively to a state sentence that he was then serving. Gilliard now appeals his sentence. We affirm.

Gilliard’s presentence report assigned him a base offense level of 24 because he had two prior felony convictions of either a crime of violence or a controlled substance offense. See U.S. Sentencing Guidelines Manual § 2K2.1(a)(2) (2003). Gilliard contended in the district court and argues on appeal that whether he had the two prior convictions was a factual determination that under Blakely v. Washington, 542 U.S. 296, 124 S.Ct. 2531, 159 L.Ed.2d 403 (2004), was required to be charged in the indictment and either proven to a jury beyond a reasonable doubt or admitted in his guilty plea.

In both Blakely and United States v. Booker, — U.S.-, 125 S.Ct. 738, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005), the Supreme Court reaffirmed its holding in Almendarez-Torres v. United States, 523 U.S. 224, 244, 118 S.Ct. 1219, 140 L.Ed.2d 350 (1998), that the fact of a prior conviction need not be proven to a jury beyond a reasonable doubt. Blakely, 124 S.Ct. at 2536 (quoting Apprendi v. New Jersey, 530 U.S. 466, 490, 120 S.Ct. 2348, 147 L.Ed.2d 435 (2000)); accord Booker, 125 S.Ct. at 756. Here, the record is clear on its face, and Gilliard does not dispute, that he had the requisite *566 qualifying felony convictions. Thus, there was no error under Blakely or Booker.

We accordingly affirm. 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.
