846. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
Appellant contends that the district court improperly considered the Sentencing Guidelines range to be the presumptive sentence. This contention is belied by the record.
Appellant also contends that the district court failed to adequately consider the nature of his criminal history under 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a). We conclude that the district court properly considered his criminal history and the § 3553(a) factors. See United States v. Knows His Gun, 438 F.3d 913, 918-19 (9th Cir. 2006), cert denied ___ U.S. ___, 126 S.Ct. 2913, 165 L.Ed.2d 931 (2006).
AFFIRMED.
