What gun should I buy next?

Ah yes. I almost forgot about the Marlin 336. I have one in 30-30 Win. Awesome gun and many thousands of deer have met their demise with that combination.
 
If you want a "big gun", consider a larger bore S&W or Ruger in something like 44 mag or a Glock 10mm. But you don't have a 22, which is why I suggested you consider a 22 rifle. I think you have the home defense front covered with what you have already. You mentioned that you can't hit much with the Taurus 38spl revolver..... not so sure going bigger is going to help you, but that is just my thought.
 
Used Smith & Wesson 5906. It's a 3rd Generation S&W 9mm all stainless. Fun to shoot. Cheap(ish) to shoot. large capacity. Will last you a life time. Looks/feels like a "real gun". Won't cost you more than about $360, and you will be able to get most if not all of your money out of it when you want to sell it.
