Process is potentially dangerous

I have the Juggernaut tactical ultimate jig. In the instructions you need a 5/16 collet, in order to be compatible with the 5/16 end mill included in the jig.Had to get a custom made 5/16 collet as I could not find any 5/16 collets on the market comparable with my Dewalt router. Well, the jig and all of my tooling came today. Drilled the main pocket holes fine, but here’s where I am running into some potentially dangerous issue. On the second plate, Using the router, Even with cutting fluid, the end mill just does not seem to like this material. It bites, jumps, screeches, asides from normal sparks, I even had some random flash of blue light come out of my router the second it made contact. Lower is made out of 6061 billet aluminum. Any tips or suggestions will be fine.

2 Stage Doesn't Work

I had a 2 stage FCG thats been laying around forever and I'm honestly not even sure what brand it is because I got it at least a decade ago as a LPK but opted for a drop in.

Just recently finished a lower and put in a milspec trigger and hammer. Functions great at the range. Tonight I decided to swap over for the 2 stage since this is a 20" and I wanted to get a DMR style setup going hence trying to swap to the 2 stage.

I installed it and did a function test, it will not release the hammer with selector on fire.

Single stage works just fine, this 2 stage does not.

Any ideas?
