    Gilberto Hernandez, Talladega, AL, pro se.
    Before WILLIAM PRYOR, MARTIN and ANDERSON, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM:

Gilberto Hernandez appeals pro se-the denial of his motion to reduce his sentence of imprisonment for life. 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2). Hernandez sought a reduction based on Amendment 782 to the Sentencing Guidelines. We affirm,

The district court did not err by denying Hernandez’s motion to reduce. Because Hernandez’s sentence was based on the statutory mandatory minimum, United States Sentencing Guidelines Manual § 5Gl.l(b) (Nov.1993), not on the drug quantity tables, see id. § 2D1.1, he was ineligible for a reduction of his sentence under Amendment 782, see id. § 1B1.10 cmt n. 1(A). Hernandez argues that he was entitled to a reduction under the statutory sentencing factors, see 18 U.S.C. § .3553(a), but a district court cannot consider the sentencing factors unless it determines that a defendant is eligible for a sentence reduction. See United States v. Bravo, 203 F.3d 778, 780-81 (11th Cir. 2000). The district court lacked authority to reduce Hernandez’s sentence.

We AFFIRM the denial of Hernandez’s motion to reduce.
