Before COLLOTON, MURPHY, and GRUENDER, Circuit Judges.
                         ____________

PER CURIAM.

      Shawn Williams directly appeals after he pled guilty to being a felon in
possession of a firearm, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1), and the district court1
sentenced him to 51 months in prison, which was the low end of the calculated

      1
       The Honorable Stephen N. Limbaugh, Jr., United States District Judge for the
Eastern District of Missouri.
Guidelines range. His counsel has moved to withdraw and has filed a brief under
Anders v. California, 

(1967), questioning the reasonableness of
Williams’s sentence.

       Upon careful review, we conclude that the district court did not impose a
substantively unreasonable sentence. See United States v. Feemster, 

,
461-62 (8th Cir. 2009) (en banc) (sentences reviewed under deferential abuse-of-
discretion standard; discussing substantive reasonableness); see also Gall v. United
States, 

, 51 (2007) (if sentence is within Guidelines range, appellate court
may apply presumption of reasonableness). In addition, having independently
reviewed the record pursuant to Penson v. Ohio, 

(1988), we find no
nonfrivolous issues for appeal. Accordingly, we grant counsel’s motion to withdraw,
and we affirm.
                        ______________________________
