Pursuant to a plea agreement, appellant pled guilty in the district court to conspiracy to possess ten kilograms of cocaine with intent to distribute, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 846, and to the use of a firearm in committing a drug trafficking offense, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 924(c). At sentencing, appellant objected when the court increased his base offense level respecting the section 846 offense by two levels because one of his co-conspirators possessed a firearm. See U.S.S.G. § 2Dl.l(b)(l). The district court overruled the objection, concluding that United States v. Kimmons, 965 F.2d 1001 (11th Cir.1992), vacated and remanded on other grounds, — U.S. -, 113 S.Ct. 2326, 124 L.Ed.2d 239 (1993), reinstated on remand, 1 F.3d 1144 (11th Cir.1993), controlled its decision on the point.

[*933] The court concluded that appellant’s guideline range (after adding the two points to the base offense level) for the section 846 offense was 135 to 168 months. The Government moved the court pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3553(e) and U.S.S.G. § 5K1.1 to sentence appellant below the guideline range and the ten-year mandatory minimum. The court granted the motion and sentenced appellant for the section 846 offense to 60 months of imprisonment. The court also sentenced appellant to a consecutive prison term of 60 months for the section 924(c) offense as required by law.

Appellant challenges his section 846 sentence on the ground that the district court misapplied the Guidelines in calculating the sentencing range for the section 846 offense. Appellant contends the court should not have increased the base offense level to account for the co-conspirator’s possession of a firearm during the commission of the conspiracy. We find no error and therefore affirm appellant’s sentence for the section 846 offense.

Appellant contends that the two-level enhancement is prohibited by virtue of the language in Application Note 2 of U.S.S.G. § 2K2.4. ^[1] We disagree. The relevant portion of the note states:

Where a sentence under this section [which includes 924(c) ] is imposed in conjunction with a sentence for an underlying offense, any specific offense characteristic for the possession, use, or discharge of an explosive or firearm ... is not to be applied in respect to the guideline for the underlying offense.

Application Note 2, U.S.S.G. § 2K2.4 (1993). This provision applies to forbid enhancements for the defendant’s possession of the weapon, since punishment for possession of that weapon has been meted out in the 924(c) sentence. United States v. Rodgers, 981 F.2d 497, 500 (11th Cir.1993) (forbidding a two-level enhancement for defendant’s own weapon where defendant is also convicted under 924(c)). We do not read the note to suggest that enhancement for a separate weapons possession, such as that of a co-conspirator, is prohibited. See United States v. Washington, 44 F.3d 1271, 1281 (5th Cir.1995) (applying the enhancement for a co-conspirator’s weapon despite the defendant’s 924(c) conviction), cert. denied, — U.S. -, 115 S.Ct. 2011, 131 L.Ed.2d 1010 (1995).

This circuit has confirmed application of this enhancement provision under analogous circumstances. See Kimmons, 965 F.2d at 1011. In Kimmons, a three-level enhancement for the weapons possession of a co-conspirator was added to the defendant’s conspiracy to commit robbery sentence despite his separate 924(c) conviction. ^[2] Id. Because we find the reasoning in Kimmons persuasive and consistent with our view of Application Note 2 of § 2K2.4, we reinstate Kimmons’ holding as to the weapon enhancement issue. Accordingly, the judgment of the district court is

AFFIRMED.
