The District Court erred procedurally when it relied on
Fenton to calculate Kellers Guidelines range. Accordingly, we
will vacate the judgment and remand so the District Court can
recalculate Kellers Guidelines range by applying the four-point
enhancement in USSG 2K2.1(b)(6) before considering the 18
U.S.C. 3553(a) factors and imposing a new judgment of
sentence.
