Larry Victor Younger appeals his convictions for felony murder and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony, both in connection with the death of Scott Monty. For the reasons that follow, we affirm.1 Construed to support the verdicts, the evidence showed that Courtney Freeman, Chase Aston Pickney, Kevin Washington, Christopher Hackney, and Shawon Golightly resolved to rob a drug dealer at his home. They gathered at Pickney’s home and drove in two cars to a restaurant where they picked up Larry Younger. After arriving near the home that they believed to be the drug dealer’s, Freeman demurred from continuing and Younger took Freeman’s pistol.

Monty was in his home with his family shortly after midnight. Pickney knocked on the door and asked to use the phone. Hackney, wearing a bandana over his face, and Younger, wearing a ski mask, rushed through the front door; Younger brandished a handgun, and demanded money and drugs. Monty confronted the men, pulled Hackney’s bandana off, and Hackney and Younger retreated. Monty followed them, and as Younger backed out of the house, Monty reached for Younger’s pistol, and Younger fatally shot him in the chest. The men ran to their cars and went home.
