Why not a glock in .357 and the marlin in .357.

Then you only have to buy one caliber.

See you all after.

The Glock is in .357 SIG, which is a throated down rimless calibre, whereas the Marlin is a straight wall revolver round.

If I may chime in here...

If that combo are your only guns, I would suggest going with readily available common ammo (9mm, .22, .308, 410 and 12 gauge and even .223 or 7.62x39). You'll be more likely to find some at the local ammo place or find someone (a farmer, cop, gun enthusiast) from whom you could buy or trade for. Having 2 guns shooting the same ammo is good if you have a few guns, but if you only have a pair in say .357, you may be out of luck if your stash runs out.

I agree with Helico. Pick easy to get calibres/gauges. Not only is the ammo more readily available, it is cheaper. While your plan to use common ammo with your guns is sound, common ammo with your group/traders may be better.
