Before LOKEN, MURPHY, and BENTON, Circuit Judges.
                           ___________

PER CURIAM.

       Jarmar D. Moore pled guilty to being a felon in possession of a firearm, in
violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 922(g)(1), 924(a)(2). In calculating the advisory Guidelines
sentencing range, the district court1 added a 4-level enhancement under U.S.S.G.
§ 2K2.1(b)(6) for possessing or using the firearm at issue “in connection with another
felony offense.” On appeal, Moore’s counsel moved to withdraw, and in a brief filed
under Anders v. California, 

(1967), argues that the district court erred



      1
        The Honorable Ortrie D. Smith, United States District Judge for the Western
District of Missouri.
in overruling Moore’s objection to the 4-level enhancement, and that Moore received
ineffective assistance of counsel.

       The district court did not err in applying the 4-level enhancement, because the
court could have concluded, based on the facts before it, that Moore possessed the
firearm in connection with another felony offense: violation of Mo. Rev. Stat. §
571.030, which prohibits the unlawful use of a weapon. See United States v . Jenkins-
Watts, 

, 960 (8th Cir. 2009) (standard of review); U.S.S.G. § 2K2.1,
comment 14(C). Contrary to Moore’s argument, the contemporaneous brandishing of
the firearm in violation of Mo. Rev. Stat § 571.030.1 supports the 4-level
enhancement. See United States v. Jackson, 

, 708 (8th Cir. 2011)
Finally, the ineffective assistance claim is not properly raised in this direct appeal.
See United States v. Ramirez-Hernandez, 

, 827 (8th Cir. 2006).

       This court reviewed the record independently under Penson v. Ohio, 

(1988), and found no nonfrivolous issues for appeal. The judgment of the district
court is affirmed, and counsel’s motion to withdraw is granted, subject to counsel
informing Moore about procedures for seeking rehearing or filing a petition for
certiorari.
