                                  ____________

                                  [Unpublished]
                                  ____________

Before LOKEN, WOLLMAN, and STRAS, Circuit Judges.
                         ____________

PER CURIAM.

       Robert Brown received an 84-month prison sentence for possessing a firearm
as a felon. 18 U.S.C. §§ 922(g)(1), 924(a)(2). On appeal, he argues that the district
court1 erroneously counted a prior Missouri conviction of second-degree robbery as
a “crime of violence,” which had the effect of increasing his base offense level under
the Sentencing Guidelines. See U.S.S.G. §§ 2K2.1(a)(4)(A), 4B1.2(a). In United
States v. Parker, No. 17-3732, 2019 WL 2932190 (8th Cir. July 9, 2019) (published),
we recently addressed this argument and reached a contrary conclusion.
Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the district court. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
                        ______________________________

      1
      The Honorable Stephen R. Bough, United States District Judge for the
Western District of Missouri.
