Did a search for LWRC on the forum relating to this new gun and found nothing. LWRC has leaked this out online and it has been trending a little bit on some various channels. Potentially more to come from Shot Show 2015.
No name, no details. Just that it is LWRC, and it is in 45acp.
Looks like a modified AR15 platform. Different lower magwell design and a different upper.

From Gunsamerica's blog...
"The last weapon to be released at SHOT is the SMG-45. The SMG is a pistol caliber carbine developed for police and military use. That said, we should see a civilian model by 2016. The SMG-45 is a delayed blowback .45acp carbine that utilizes H&K UMP magazines. It is fully ambidextrous, and the Charging handle can even be swapped to the right side. The SMG is a compact package . If you want to conceal the carbine, or just make storage easier, the gun has a folding stock that reduces length by nearly 10 inches.
Make sure to keep an eye out for these guns in the coming year."
And this...
Pistol version planned, designed in 45 so they can later develop 9mm and 40sw versions.
