   OPINION

ROTH, Circuit Judge:

Marvin Tillman appeals from a judgment of sentence after pleading guilty to conspiring to rob an armored vehicle and to commit and threaten physical violence in furtherance of that plan, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1951(a). The District Court had jurisdiction under 18 U.S.C. § 3231. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291 and 18 U.S.C. 3742(a). We exercise plenary review of an interpretation of the Sentencing Guidelines and review factual findings for clear error. United States v. Grier, 475 F.3d 556, 570 (3d Cir.2007). We will affirm.

We assume the parties’ familiarity with the facts and the record of prior proceedings, which we describe only as necessary to explain our decision.

Tillman first argues that the District Court erred in calculating the loss amount as $1,165,000 — the amount in the armored car at the time of the robbery— rather than $88,355 — the amount actually transferred to the getaway vehicle. The facts are undisputed, however, that Tillman’s coconspirators were in sole possession and control of the armored car and, in fact, drove it some distance before they fled to the getaway vehicle. Accordingly, the District Court’s calculation was proper. See U.S.S.G. § 2B3.1, Appl. Note 3 (“ ‘Loss’ is the value of the property taken, damaged, or destroyed.”); United States v. Parker, 903 F.2d 91, 105 (2d Cir.1990) (“[The conspirators] removed the car’s occupants and drove the car away.... The fact that [they] did not transfer all of the cash from the stolen car to their getaway car does not mean that they had not taken it.”).

Tillman next argues that the District Court erred in applying a seven-level increase to Tillman’s offense level because a firearm was discharged during the robbery. It is undisputed, however, that one of Tillman’s coconspirators fired his gun during the robbery. The District Court’s explicit finding that this was both in furtherance of the conspiracy and reasonably foreseeable is, thus, not clearly erroneous. See U.S.S.G. § 1B1.3, Appl. Note 2(b)(1) (“getaway driver in an armed bank robbery” responsible for assault injury to bank teller); United States v. Dupree, 323 F.3d 480, 490 (6th Cir.2003) (reasonably foreseeable that firearm would be involved in robbery of armored car); United States v. Molina, 106 F.3d 1118, 1121-22 (2d Cir.1997) (same).

Finally, Tillman argues that the District Court should have granted his motion for a downward departure. Tillman does not argue, however, that the District Court misapprehended the law concerning its ability to grant the requested departure, and we will not review a District Court’s discretionary decision to deny departure. United States v. Cooper, 437 F.3d 324, 332-33 (3d Cir.2006). In any event, the District Court ultimately sentenced Tillman to a 140-month term of imprisonment, well below his Sentencing Guidelines range of 151-188 months.

Accordingly, we will affirm the judgment of sentence. 
      
      . Section 2B3.1 of the Sentencing Guidelines, which governs robberies, provides for a four-level increase if the loss amount is more than $800,000 but less than $1,500,000, U.S.S.G. § 2B3.1(b)(7)(E), and a two-level increase if the loss is more than $50,000 but less than $250,000, id. § 2B3.1(b)(7)(C).
