I am thinking of buying a Beretta 92FS, just wondering if anyone has any opinions on it? I already have a compact .45. Im just wanting to get a high cap 9mm

Although an accurate, pretty reliable pistol. and plenty of cheap surplus mags.  It is a BRICK!  If your planning to carrying it, make sure you buy a good pair of suspenders!  

I would much rather carry a G17 or a M&P9 if I were looking for a fullsize hi cap 9mm.

Oh, it can also be used as a hammer if your planning to do any carpentry work soon.

I don't plan on carrying it, its gonna be more of my truck gun or my edc bag gun as more of a backup if I'm not anywhere near the house ( I work out of town a lot). I like the look of it much better than a block or similar handguns. Its m second favorite behind a 1911

Should be fine then, if thats what floats your boat. I owned one for a while, other than being bulky, its was a decent gun.

Good reliable iron, as are the old Taurus knock offs. Though if I wanted a big heavy sweet shooting gun I think I would swing CZ.

Uncle Sam let me carry one on my visit to IRAQ, Heavy is an understatememt. I had to qualify with it but my after that buddy in Security Forces let me shoot his M-11 (aka Sig) a lot nicer piece. Sure wanted to trade for it and I'm not a big Sig fan.
My $.02, there are lots better handguns out there in 9mike.I Prefer S&W over the block

I decided not to buy one at this juncture, bought me a cheap Taurus .38 special revolver as a toy

Don't turn your back on it completely. It is a good gun, especially for what you were describing, a truck gun.
And yes it looks good, i think it is the damn sexiest looking gun around.
Yes, I said sexiest.
