Cortex Entries are small pieces of lore attached with the particular weapon found in Anthem and accessed through the Cortex. All weapons have at least one entry associated with them. All Masterwork and Legendary weapons' cortex entries directly add to the narrative of the world.

The Blastback is a heavy handgun with devastating strike force. It's ideal for close quarters when you don't have the luxury of getting off a lot of shots. When you've got a heavy target around the corner, this big iron piece is a great choice.
