Defendant-Appellant Vernon Eugene Peters pleaded guilty to one count of possessing at least 50 grams of crack cocaine with intent to distribute and one count of possessing a firearm during the commission of a drug trafficking crime. He was sentenced to serve a 120-month prison term on the drug possession count as well as a 60-month prison term on the firearms conviction, the latter sentence to run consecutively to the former, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 924(c)(1)(A)®.

*711 In the sole issue raised in this direct appeal, Peters contends that the district court erred by sentencing him to a mandatory five-year minimum sentence under § 924(c)(1)(A)© because his drug offense carried a greater minimum sentence. This argument has been rejected by both this court and the United States Supreme Court. Abbott v. United States, — U.S. -,---, 131 S.Ct. 18, 22-23, 178 L.Ed.2d 348 (2010); United States v. London, 568 F.3d 553, 564 (5th Cir. 2009), cert. denied, — U.S.-, 131 S.Ct. 631, 178 L.Ed.2d 507 (2010).

The judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
