1Opinion of the Court

CARL E. STEWART, Chief Judge:

Reynaldo Macedo-Flores (Macedo) appeals his convictions for possession with intent to distribute 500 grams or more of cocaine and methamphetamines, obstruction of justice, and two counts of perjury. He challenges the district court’s denial of his requested sentencing entrapment jury instruction, the sufficiency of the evidence regarding the materiality of his false statement supporting the perjury convictions, and the district court’s admission of a lead police investigator’s lay opinion testimony regarding Macedo’s use of certain coded words. We AFFIRM.
