Private ownership of guns and the ability to possess them outside the home are unquestionably more restricted in Mexico than in the US, but guns are not illegal in Mexico.
And, of course, most of the illegal guns in Mexico come from the US.
Another example, I think, of how it's just not as simple as pointing to countries with strict gun control laws and policies or lax ones and drawing direct correlations to gun violence. There are too many other factors involved.
