BOOCHEVER, Circuit Judge:

On September 27, 1994, a jury returned guilty verdicts against Pedro Arias Hernandez on one count of using or carrying a firearm during and in relation to a drug trafficking crime, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 924(c)(1) (1994), and on one count of being a felon in possession of a firearm, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1) (1994). The charges were based on events that took place on April 27, 1989, and evidence seized pursuant to a search warrant issued that same day.

On appeal, Hernandez argues that (1) the evidence was insufficient to support the § 924(c)(1)…
