   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  12-3339
   U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri - Springfield   
   [PUBLISHED] [Loken, Author, with Colloton and Benton, Circuit Judges] 
   Criminal case - Sentencing Guidelines. In a prosecution charging defendant 
   with being a felon and unlawful drug user in possession of a firearm, the 
   district court did not err in imposing a four-level enhancement under 
   Guidelines Sec. 2K2.1(b)(6)(B) for possession of a firearm in connection 
   with another felony, as the district court clearly understood and properly 
   applied the "facilitate" standard of note 14(a); the Guideline does not 
   require that the weapon be loaded as an unloaded firearm retains the 
   potential to facilitate a drug crime.
