PER CURIAM:

1
The district court's order denying appellant McCall's post-sentence motion for commitment for treatment under the Narcotic Addict Rehabilitation Act, 18 U.S.C. Sec. 4251 et seq., was correct.  Appellant had two prior felony convictions in Florida for possession of cocaine, in violation of 398.03 Florida Statutes, and for carrying a concealed weapon, in violation of 790.01 Florida Statutes, and thus was ineligible under 18 U.S.C. Sec. 4251(f)(4) for NARA commitment.1

Affirmed.
