- finding sufficient evidence under similar facts where no usable prints were found on the gun after it was recovered
- finding equivocal assertion when the defendant “only asked the district court for information about ‘the rule’ on self-representation and manifested no intention to actually represent himself”
- relying on circumstantial evidence to show the defendant knowingly possessed the firearm
