79 F. App'x 671

United States v. Jackson

Opinion

PER CURIAM. *

Alexander Jackson appeals his conviction by a jury for being a felon in posses *672 sion of a firearm. He asserts that the evidence was insufficient to establish that the item in question was a “firearm” as defined in 18 U.S.C. § 921(a)(3). After reviewing the record and the arguments of counsel, we hold that the evidence was sufficient for a reasonable jury to find that the item in question was in fact a “firearm.” See United States v. Blevinal, 607 F.2d 1124, 1128 (5th Cir. 1979); United States v. Seastrunk, 580 F.2d 800, 802 (5th Cir. 1978). Consequently, the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.

*

Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
