ACUdraw Crank Cocking on the Commander
This package uses the standard ACUdraw crank rather than the De-Cock variant. That means it cocks the crossbow with a built-in crank handle but isn't designed to safely de-cock it afterward - something to keep in mind if you regularly end a sit without taking a shot.
