JULIA SMITH GIBBONS, Circuit Judge. In November 2022, defendant-appellant Terrence London, II, was indicted on a total of six charges: two counts of being a felon in possession of a firearm, in violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 922(g)(1) and 924; two counts of knowingly possessing a controlled substance with the intent to distribute, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1); and two counts of knowingly possessing a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking crime, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 924(c)(1)(A). London’s charges stem from two separate incidents that occurred on November 18, 2021, and June 6, 2022. London was ultimately acquitted of the charges arising from the November 18 incident but convicted of the three June 6 charges. He now appeals his June 6 convictions on several grounds. For the reasons discussed below, we affirm London’s convictions.
