1Opinion of the Court

Ruffin, Judge.

Jason Law appeals from his convictions for armed robbery, aggravated assault, and two counts of possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime. He does not challenge the sufficiency of the evidence. Instead, he argues that the trial court erred in admitting certain testimony and in charging the jury. He also claims that the trial court erroneously imposed consecutive sentences for the two firearm charges under OCGA § 16-11-106. For the reasons discussed below, we affirm Law’s convictions, but vacate his sentences on the two firearm possession counts.
