I recently started playing and I would like to know a good weapon to start at the game.

Well, that depends on your style of play, friend.
Do you like long range? If so, your best bet would be a bolt action rifle. Such as the K98, V.G. or Mosin Nagant.
If you like in your face building clearing, the MP-40 or PPS-42. Or even better, Moscow campaign PPD-34/38 works very well.

well weapons don’t really dictate whether you win or not, that’s up to the player base.
doesn’t matter if you have fedorov avtomat at lvl 1 but you fight against full sweatlord team
in conclusion, my advise is to play whichever faction is populated, it’ll save your sanity

The best noob friendly weapon is MP-38 in Moscow, it’s easy to unlock and it’s a good little smg. The best smg’s in the game are soviet ones but they require some getting used to so I won’t recommend them to new players
As for rifles it really depends on your preference
Mosin Nagant (long) deals the most damage but fires slow, it will always one shot at any range
Kar 98 deals slightly less damage but fires faster
Springfield is not that good
Arisaka has little recoil so follow up shots are easy with this gun
Carcano m38 also has little recoil and has the fastest fire rate but the lowest damage
Avoid using planes for first 2 weeks of playing. Most players who are great with planes have at least some experience with warthunder. Even I who’s been playing for 3 years now can’t hit anything with bombs

Could Carcano be the best starter rifle?
Bolt actions’ accuracy and lethality with 6 rounds, unlike most starters holding just 5.

My favourite is the Mannlicher, so quick action, still use it to this day, my trusted rifle on engineers and AT-Gunners.

Try doing a steep dive. You can be really accurate that way and if you have enough altitude, you will have plenty of time to pull up. Or you can be like me and play chicken with the Earth - though I never win. Either I pull up on time (usually) and the Earth win, or I don’t and I die

MP38 is cheap, easy and good. 500RPM, controllable and 32 rounds. For rifles, depends on the campaign, but the Kar-98 is virtually always available early on. The Vz. 24 is a really good option too. I think it’s the engineer class rifle.
Avoid semi-autos until you’ve got bronze to upgrade them to reduce recoil. Does no good firing fast if you’re missing a lot

Lee is great but not a starter weapon
Really? I mean its early unlock such as M91/30, MP38 or PPD so…
