PER CURIAM.

The district court1

 sentenced Shannon Kies to 87 months in prison after he pled

guilty to one count of theft of firearms from a federal firearms licensee. For the

reasons discussed below, we affirm his sentence.

Kies argues the district court erred by denying downward adjustments for his

role in the offense and for his acceptance of responsibility, and by applying an

enhancement for obstruction of justice. Having reviewed the district court's factual

findings and legal conclusions under the applicable standards of review, we determine

there is no error. See U.S.S.G. §3C1.1, cmt. n.4(e); §3E1.1, cmt. n.4.

Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the district court.
