1Opinion of the Court
ELLINGTON, Presiding Judge.
A Richmond County jury found Darrell McNair guilty of four counts of armed robbery, OCGA § 16-8-41 (a); and four counts of possessing a firearm during the commission of a crime, OCGA § 16-11-106 (b). McNair appeals from the denial of his motion for a new trial. He argues that the trial court erred in admitting certain evidence and in failing to give the jury a limiting instruction. He also contends the court erred in denying his motion for a new trial on his claim of ineffective assistance of counsel. Finding no reversible error, we affirm.
