Sharps Bros Showdown Lower Receiver

Sharps Bros posted the following on their social media pages about the development of the Showdown lower receiver:

This one has been a long time in the making. It started back in 2019 with @jsharps and @wdigeorge (@battlearms) collaborating on the design… It’s patent issued back in 2020. Corona, other projects, etc kept it in the dark till now. It’s complexity also required an evolution of our manufacturing and programming team to bring it to life. It’s here now though, it’s shipping and we’re excited to see what you do with them!
