        "text": "Frank Holt, Justice.\nAppellant was convicted by the court, sitting as a jury, of armed robbery and sentenced to 21 years pursuant to the provisions of the Habitual Criminal Act, Ark. Stat. Ann. \u00a7 43-2328 (Rep!. 1964). An additional two year sentence for the use of a firearm was also imposed. Appellant\u2019s sole contention for reversal is that the prosecuting attorney improperly presented evidence that appellant had a gun in his possession when he was arrested. Appellant relies on Botany v. State, 258 Ark. 866, 529 S.W. 2d 149 (1975). There we said \u201cthat [the] weapon had nothing to do with the offense oq trial.\u201d In the case at bar, however, the victim identified the appellant and testified that appellant used a .22 pistol during the robbery. One of the arresting officers testified that when he arrested the appellant he had a .22 pistol in his possession. We cannot say, in view of this evidence, that the weapon had nothing to do with the offense of robbery. Therefore, Botany is not controlling.\nFurthermore, appellant did not object to the testimony that he had a gun in his possession when arrested. In the absence of an objection we are precluded from considering appellant\u2019s contention for the first time on appeal. Ford v. State, 253 Ark. 5, 484 S.W. 2d 90 (1972); and Williams v. State, 257 Ark. 8, 513 S.W. 2d 793 (1974).\nAffirmed.",
