Before MORRIS SHEPPARD ARNOLD, FAGG, and SMITH, Circuit Judges.
                         ___________

PER CURIAM.

       David Rojas-Perez appeals the sentence the district court1 imposed after he
pleaded guilty to conspiring to distribute 500 grams or more of a methamphetamine
mixture, in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 841(a)(1), 841(b)(1)(A), and 846. His counsel
has moved to withdraw and filed a brief under Anders v. California, 

(1967). Rojas-Perez has filed a pro se supplemental brief arguing that, because the
district court enhanced his sentence under U.S.S.G. § 2D1.1(b)(1) (possessing
dangerous weapon in connection with drug offense), he was sentenced on charges not

      1
      The Honorable James E. Gritzner, United States District Judge for the
Southern District of Iowa.
contained in the indictment and the sentence violates his Sixth Amendment rights
under Blakely v. Washington, 

(2004). We affirm.

       The pro se arguments fail. Although Rojas-Perez initially objected to the
sentencing enhancement under section 2D1.1(b)(1), he later withdrew his objection.
He is thus foreclosed from raising issues here regarding the section 2D1.1(b)(1)
enhancement. See United States v. Olano, 

, 732-34 (1993) (claim
relinquished below need not be addressed on appeal); United States v. Tulk, 

, 600 (8th Cir. 1999) (issue deliberately waived below is not reviewed, even for
plain error).

      Upon careful review of the record under Penson v. Ohio, 

, 80
(1988), we note that the district court imposed Rojas-Perez’s sentence prior to the
Supreme Court’s decision in United States v. Booker, 

(2005). While
we now know it was error to apply the federal Sentencing Guidelines in a mandatory
fashion, Rojas-Perez has not demonstrated “a ‘reasonable probability,’ based on the
appellate record as a whole, that but for the error he would have received a more
favorable sentence.” See United States v. Pirani, 

, 549-54 (8th Cir.
2005) (en banc) (plain error review when mandatory-Guidelines issue not raised
below; plain error review is governed by the four-part test of 

-
36). We find no other nonfrivolous issues.

      Accordingly, we affirm, and we grant counsel’s motion to withdraw.
