    ____________
    Before SHEPHERD, STRAS, and KOBES, Circuit Judges.
    ____________
    PER CURIAM.
    Logan Wilson received a 72-month sentence after he pleaded guilty to a
    firearms offense. See 
    18 U.S.C. § 922
    (g)(3) (drug user in possession of a firearm).
    An Anders brief suggests that the sentence is substantively unreasonable. See
    Anders v. California, 
    386 U.S. 738
     (1967).
    We conclude otherwise. See United States v. Feemster, 
    572 F.3d 455
    , 461
    (8th Cir. 2009) (en banc) (reviewing the reasonableness of a sentence for an abuse
    of discretion). The record establishes that the district court 1 sufficiently considered
    the statutory sentencing factors, 
    18 U.S.C. § 3553
    (a), and did not rely on an improper
    factor or commit a clear error of judgment. See United States v. McDaniels, 
    19 F.4th 1065
    , 1067 (8th Cir. 2021) (per curiam) (explaining that the district court has “wide
    latitude to weigh the relevant sentencing factors” and “weighing [them] differently
    than a defendant would have preferred does not alone justify reversal” (citation
    omitted)).
    We have also independently reviewed the record and conclude that no other
    non-frivolous issues exist. See Penson v. Ohio, 
    488 U.S. 75
    , 82–83 (1988). We
    accordingly affirm the judgment of the district court and grant counsel permission
    to withdraw.
