Can't open inventory after examining a artifact

I had picked up a artifact from a gunsmith NCP at the stilt grounds and when I when to exanimate it closed out of my inventory. I haven't be able to see the gun in the tinkering tab or when I try to equip it. I am playing with some mods so that might be the case but there are report of something similar happing in the past so I'm putting it here. Zip is linked.
