PER CURIAM:

       Jose Luis Solis-Flores appeals the 70-month sentence that the district court

imposed following his conviction for illegal reentry by an aggravated felon, in violation

of 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a), (b)(2) (2012). On appeal, Solis-Flores contends that the district

court erred in imposing the within-Guidelines-range sentence. Solis-Flores provides no

argument in support of his assertion and has therefore waived appellate review of this

issue. See Hensley on behalf of N.C. v. Price, ___ F.3d ___, ___, No. 16-1294, 

, at *4 & n.5 (4th Cir. Nov. 17, 2017) (“[A] party must do more than take a

passing shot at an issue to properly preserve it for appellate review.” (alterations and

internal quotation marks omitted)); Eriline Co. S.A. v. Johnson, 

, 653 n.7

(4th Cir. 2006) (concluding that single, conclusory remark is insufficient to preserve issue

for appellate review); Fed. R. App. P. 28(a)(8)(A).

       Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s judgment. We dispense with oral

argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the

materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

                                                                               AFFIRMED
