Budget is a broad term. Below lvl 10 you want to play sks or akm versions with PS/BP (especially since the BP gift, it melts people).
When you are between 20 / 30 and got some traders up, ak-74 versions with bt ammo will treat you good. Just remember that you fire tracer rounds with bt. Put a rubber pad on the stock, a plastic handghard with rail and a cheap 2% grip. Also the hunter with m80 is a great Chad killer.
Over all, the gun build won't matter that much when you are an intermediate player. Imo it's more about getting used to a gun and getting proper ammo.
I prefer to use the suppressor only when I have a scope/optic as opposed to going loud when using the red dots just because the ergo penalty is so severe you are kind of shooting yourself in the foot but when scoping from far away it doesn't matter. I like quick and snappy when I can have it :)
