1Opinion of the Court
LAY, Circuit Judge.
Defendant was convicted of engaging in the business of dealing in firearms without a license in violation of 18 U.S. C. §§ 922(a)(1) and 924(a). On appeal, defendant contends the trial court erred in denying defendant’s pre-trial discovery motion; in refusing to find a fatal variance between the indictment and the government’s proof; in not sustaining defendant’s defense of entrapment as a matter of law; and in its charge to the jury defining “reasonable doubt” in terms of “substantial doubt.” On review we find no prejudicial error and affirm the conviction below.
