Among the eight laws signed is a 10-year ban on gun possession for those convicted of child abuse or elder abuse.
Meanwhile, a host of other mass shootings have taken place across the country in rapid succession this year, prompting outcry for strengthened gun control measures.
“California has the toughest gun safety laws in the nation, but none of us can afford to be complacent in tackling the gun violence crisis ravaging our country,” Newsom said in a statement. “These new measures will help keep children safe at school, keep guns out of the hands of dangerous people and responsibly regulate the sale of firearms in our communities," he said, adding:"California will continue to lead on lifesaving polices that provide a model for action by other states and the nation.
Another measure blocks licensed firearms dealers from charging more than 5% of the purchase price of a firearm as a"restocking or other return-related fee" if the purchase is canceled by the buyer within 10 days of the application, with an exception for special order firearms.
