Somebody recommend me a good .45 caliber semi auto for home defense.

I want it to have a light weight polymer frame, and have picatinny rails. I want to mount a weapon light to it. I used to own an HK45 USP. Loved that gun, but had to sell it.

I would consider another HK, a Springfield XD, or possibly a Springfield 1911. What else is out there? I don't want to spend an arm and a leg either.

Thoughts? (oh, and keep in mind I live in CA. So we have magazine limit restrictions, as well as no threaded barrels).
