Families of the Uvalde victims have filed a lawsuit against Daniel Defense, the makers of the AR-15 assault rifle, and Activision, the publisher of the first-person shooter video game series "Call of Duty," and Meta, the parent company of Instagram over what they claim was their role in promoting the gun used in the shooting. Salvador Ramos -- the 18-year-old shooter who killed 18 students and two teachers and wounded 17 others -- purchased the AR-15 a week before the shooting, months after he began playing the latest version of the game and made several Instagram posts about weapons, Josh Koskoff, the attorney representing the families, alleged. Daniel Defense, Activision and Meta did not immediately comment on the lawsuit.
