1Opinion of the Court

LOKEN, Chief Judge.

A jury convicted Fred A. Green of possession with intent to distribute cocaine, conspiracy to distribute cocaine, possession of a machine gun in furtherance of drug trafficking, and being a felon in possession of a firearm. He was sentenced to 548 months in prison. See 18 U.S.C. § 924(c)(1) (B) (ii). Green appeals his conviction, arguing that the district court 1 erred in not suppressing evidence found during a protective sweep of his residence at the time of his arrest, and in not declaring a mistrial on account of the government’s improper rebuttal argument. We affirm.
