Robert John Manuel, Sr.
Defendant Appellant ____________
Appeal from United States District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Central ____________

Before SHEPHERD, ERICKSON, and STRAS, Circuit Judges. ____________
PER CURIAM.
Robert John Manuel, Sr. appeals the within-Guidelines-range sentence the district court1 imposed after he pleaded guilty to a firearm offense. His counsel has
1 The Honorable Rebecca Goodgame Ebinger, United States District Judge for the Southern District of Iowa. moved for leave to withdraw, and has filed a brief under Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), challenging the substantive reasonableness of the sentence.
Upon careful review, we conclude that the district court did not impose a substantively unreasonable sentence. See United States v. Feemster, 572 F.3d 455, 461-62 (8th Cir. 2009) (en banc) (reviewing sentence under deferential abuse-of- discretion standard; discussing substantive reasonableness); see also United States v. Callaway, 762 F.3d 754, 760 (8th Cir. 2014) (on appeal, within-Guidelines-range sentence presumed reasonable).
Having independently reviewed the record under Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75 (1988), we find no non-frivolous issues for appeal. Accordingly, we grant counsel leave to withdraw, and affirm. ______________________________
