Correct, it couldn't effect prior purchases. But what you're referring to is if the option for LLC/Trust becomes necessary to receive CLEO signature, then you'd be in a spot where you'd need it for new purchases. In which case you'll need to do one of three things.

1. Go without new purchase NFA items
2. Move to a more NFA friendly county
3. Find a chief in a different branch of LE to sign off that is acceptable to NFA regs. Clearly your Sheriff is out on that one (at least this guy) so you'll have to explore those other options. I'd start by making phone calls using hypothetical questions, ie no specifics. Call or email their offices and ask if they are willing to sign off on the paperwork, worst thing they can say is no.

Also, if one is willing, and has the authority, to sign off on it, the others can't do jack squat about it, no matter if they have all your info or not. After the fact it's a moot point because the BATFE has all the info on it anyway.
