From what I've heard, the shooter didn't even own the guns he used; they were owned by the mother. Therefore, I don't think tougher gun control would have been the answer to what occurred here.
I haven't been keeping up to date, but do you think the Mother would have had the guns in a location accessible to the son, if she knew he was going to kill her and children? Of course not.
Assuming all of that is really true, I'm not sure if this situation could have been prevented, unless someone knew it was going to take place (which is why they probably arrested his brother).
