MEMORANDUM OPINION

TIM TAFT, Justice.

A jury convicted appellant, Lawrence Rodriguez, of aggravated robbery and assessed punishment at 25 years’ confinement. See Tex. Pen.Code Ann. § 29.03 (Vernon 2003). We determine (1) whether the evidence was legally and factually sufficient to show that appellant used a deadly weapon, (2) whether appellant’s trial counsel provided ineffective assistance due to allegedly deficient representation at the guilt/innocence stage, and (3) whether the trial court erred in entering a deadly-weapon affirmative finding in the judgment. We affirm.
