Sir,
Like a lot of responses to questions on here my answer would be to focus on the near term. Once you get to your team you will be squared away with the kit you need and hopefully some good examples of how to run it. That being said, as a new Team Leader you aren't going to be turning any heads with how sweet your gear is set up anyway. If you have your own plate carrier you will likely find yourself wearing an issued one anyway, so wait till you get one. If your question was just to facilitate the training you are doing on your own, than you can probably still afford to hold off. If you show up with a good grasp of the fundamentals you will be ready to train. New guys that run into problems usually have issues with marksmanship fundamentals and not switching from slick to kit or adapting to some new technique. Hopefully my response was not too rambling to get the point across, don't worry about it.
Respectfully,
Turboprop
