Mark Gaddy appeals after he pleaded guilty to being a felon in possession of firearms and ammunition. He argues the district court1 erred by denying his motion The Honorable Rebecca Goodgame Ebinger, United States District Judge for the Southern District of Iowa. to dismiss the indictment because the prosecution violated the Second Amendment, both facially and as applied to him. Upon careful review, we conclude that the district court properly denied the motion, as Gaddy’s argument is foreclosed by our precedent. See United States v. Jackson, 110 F.4th 1120, 1125, 1129 (8th Cir. 2024), cert. denied, 145 S. Ct. 2708 (2025); see also United States v. Harris-Franklin, 146 F.4th 631, 637 & n.2 (8th Cir. 2025); United States v. Cameron, 99 F.4th 432, 435-36 (8th Cir.), cert. denied, 145 S. Ct. 314 (2024). Accordingly, we affirm. ______________________________
