Sentence and conviction for being a felon in possession of a firearm and ammunition is affirmed where: 1) the district court’s admission of defendant’s home invasion and shooting evidence was proper as they were integral in establishing defendant’s possession of the firearm; 2) the district court was correct in determining that the evidence did not support defendant’s theory of defense instruction; 3) district court’s sentencing was proper under the sentencing guidelines.
