OPINION
Mark A. Nixon pled guilty to one count of unlawful possession of a firearm by a felon in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1), and was sentenced to a 120-month term of incarceration, less 17 months for time served in state custody. Nixon’s counsel filed an Anders motion to withdraw as counsel, asserting that all potential grounds for appeal are frivolous. For the reasons set forth below, we grant that motion and affirm the judgment of the District Court.1
I.
Because we write solely for the parties, we discuss only those facts necessary to our decision. In 2003, Nixon was arrested for conduct that resulted in both a multiple-count state indictment and a federal indictment for unlawful possession of a firearm by a felon in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1). He was ultimately convicted in state court and was sentenced to five to ten years.
Nixon was also convicted and sentenced by the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania after both his state sentence was pronounced and the Supreme Court ruled in United States v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220, 125 S.Ct. 738, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005), that the United States Sentencing Guidelines are advisory. The District Court found that, under the advisory Guidelines, Nixon’s adjusted offense level was 30, reduced to 27 for acceptance of responsibility pursuant to U.S.S.G. § 3El.l(a) and (b), and his criminal history category was VI. The resulting advisory sentencing range was 130 to 162 months, which exceeded the statutory maximum of 120 months pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 924(a)(2). Thus, the advisory Guidelines sentence was 120 months. The District Court considered the sentencing factors at 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a), used the statutory maximum of 120 months as its starting point, and granted a 17 month downward adjustment for the time Nixon had already served on his state court conviction. The District Court further ordered that Nixon’s federal sentence be served concurrently with his state sentence. Nixon timely appealed the judgment of conviction and sentence.
II.
Under Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), if counsel “finds [a] case to be wholly frivolous, after a conscientious examination” of the potential grounds for appeal, s/he should “advise the court and request permission to withdraw.” Id. at 744, 87 S.Ct. 1396. This request must be accompanied by “a brief referring to anything in the record that might arguably support the appeal,” id., “explain[ing] to the court why the issues are frivolous,” United States v. Marvin, 211 F.3d 778, 781 (3d Cir.2000), and demonstrating that s/he has *340“thoroughly scoured the record in search of appealable issues,” id. at 780. A copy of counsel’s brief must be furnished to the appellant, who must be given time to raise nonfrivolous arguments in a pro se brief. Anders, 386 U.S. at 744, 87 S.Ct. 1396; Third Circuit LAR 109.2(a) (2000).
We “confine our scrutiny to those portions of the record identified by an adequate Anders brief ... [and] those issues raised in Appellant’s pro se brief.” United States v. Youla, 241 F.3d 296, 301 (3d Cir.2001). We do not “comb the record ... for possible non-frivolous issues that both the lawyer and his client may have overlooked,” as “[our] duty is merely to determine whether counsel is correct in believing those grounds [raised are] frivolous.” United States v. Wagner, 103 F.3d 551, 552-53 (7th Cir.1996). We grant counsel’s Anders motion to withdraw if we believe “that the attorney has provided the client with a diligent and thorough search of the record for any arguable claim,” McCoy v. Court of Appeals of Wisconsin, 486 U.S. 429, 442, 108 S.Ct. 1895, 100 L.Ed.2d 440 (1988), and if we conclude “that the appeal lacks any basis in law or fact,” id. at 438 n. 10, 108 S.Ct. 1895.
III.
After an independent examination of the record, including the Pre-Sentencing Report, the sentencing transcript, and counsel’s Anders brief, it is clear that counsel has satisfied his Anders burden and that no nonfrivolous issues from which to appeal exist.2 The District Court treated the Sentencing Guidelines as advisory, adequately considered the § 3553(a) factors, and properly exercised its discretion in granting a downward adjustment.

Because there are no nonfrivolous issues for appeal, Nixon’s judgment of conviction and sentence is hereby affirmed, and counsel is granted leave to withdraw.
