Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Overthrow lower compatible with standard mil-spec AR-15 parts kits and upper receivers?
Yes. The Sharps Bros. Gen2 Overthrow is machined to mil-spec AR-15 dimensions, meaning it will accept any standard lower parts kit (LPK) and pair with any mil-spec AR-15 upper receiver. The "MULTI" caliber marking makes it versatile across a wide range of caliber-specific upper configurations, from 5.56 NATO to .300 Blackout and beyond.
Is this a stripped lower, and what else do I need to complete my build?
Yes, the Overthrow Gen2 is a stripped lower receiver, which means it does not include a lower parts kit, buffer tube assembly, or stock. To complete your build, you will need a standard AR-15 lower parts kit, a buffer tube (carbine or rifle length), a buffer and spring, and a stock or pistol brace of your choice. The included threaded bolt catch pin simplifies one step of the assembly process.
Can I further customize the finish on this lower receiver?
Absolutely — and Sharps Bros. designed the Overthrow with customization in mind. The deep relief sculpting of the helmet design, battle-worn texturing, and crack lines make it an ideal canvas for Cerakote, custom anodizing, or paint. Many builders use the intricate surface details to create dramatic two-tone or themed finishes. The hard black anodized base coat also holds up well as a standalone finish if you prefer the classic tactical look.
