A distinct form of a cocking accomplished by moving an Environmental Object to an enhanced position prior to its execution.

Comments:

An easy way to understand Positional Cock is that it is the moving of a weapon to create a better Line of Entry for a future weapon.

Another reason to implement a Positional Cock is get more Path of Travel for a weapon.

Positional Cock should always be implemented using Economy of Motion. In other words: "never make a cock a separate motion". From this perspective, one should see that a Positional Cock is never executed on its own.
