Aug 7 (Reuters) - A U.S. judge on Wednesday dismissed

much of Mexico's $10 billion lawsuit seeking to hold U.S. gun

manufacturers responsible for facilitating the trafficking of

firearms to violent drug cartels across the U.S.-Mexico border.

U.S. District Judge Dennis Saylor in Boston dismissed claims

against six of the eight companies Mexico had sued in 2021,

including Sturm, Ruger ( RGR ) and Glock, citing jurisdictional

problems.
