RILEY, Circuit Judge.

Following Tyrone Hilliard’s (Hilliard) convictions for two drug counts and three firearm counts, the district court 1 sentenced Hilliard to 270 months’ imprisonment and 5 years’ supervised release. Hilli-ard appeals, challenging the denial of his motion to suppress, the sufficiency of evidence to support one of his firearm convictions, and the district court’s authority to calculate drug quantity for the purpose of sentencing. Finding no error, we affirm.
