I noticed that the Solar Revolver and Francis’s Gun items do not have level 94 incarnations like every other green I’ve observed (assuming the grimtools item database has a complete inventory). This was kind of annoying to discover because those items were looking handy for their physical to fire damage conversion. Please add in high-level versions of these items in a patch.

Actually there are more of blue and green items, that exists only in low level versions.
About proposition, I agree with that. But core problem is the lack of cheap fire pistols. And fire DW Purifier is still very popular build.
There are many many many green items that do not have level 94 versions. Basically all faction items you can buy at revered from the base game factions do not have this.
faction pistols are crap but faction rifles are pretty good actually.
malawiglenn, your Beginner’s Guide has been very helpful to this beginner. Thanks.
I didn’t realize many greens lack endgame iterations. Would you say there is any game balance purpose behind this? Knowing that the issue mostly applies to base game items, it feels like something that was an oversight in the release of expansions.
Please let me have my end game fire conversion pistols, Crate.
Level cap is 85 in base game 
For fire guns, you can always buy / craft guns like “searing of alacrity” etc
Farming for the blueprint for https://www.grimtools.com/db/items/8687 from Benevald is also an option.
Yeah, I have 2x of that pistol in its low-level iteration and I love it. My thinking was that, if I’m not mistaken, Solar Revolver and Francis’s Gun can roll affixes to increase their phys to fire conversion and let me get to 100%.
Just for a feeling of completeness it would be nice to have high-level iterations of every item. But particularly these two in which I am presently interested!
Solar Revolver cannot roll affixes - no faction-bought item can.
Francis’ Gun can only roll one affix- either a prefix or suffix but not both as the base stats are considered equivalent to an affix of it’s own. This also applies to any base green item that can be directly crafted (e.g. https://www.grimtools.com/db/items/2345).
Edit: Getting 100% global Physical to Fire conversion is not easy (only feasible by DWing Hellfire/Infernal Francis guns) and due to the stats you lrade for it comes off as somewhat of a gimmick. There should always be a better alternative to it either for gunslingers or for casters.
No they can’t
Francis gun is a one time drop / difficulty and never get affix.
Soalr revolver is faction item, never gets affixes
