Minimalist Gaming Logo with Weapon Symbol

I am looking for a gifted graphic designer to create a stylish, minimalist gaming logo for my brand. The concept should be centered around a dark and muted color scheme that can vary between black, charcoal, indigo, maroon or similar colors. Key to the design will be the seamless integration of a weapon symbol. You should be able to portray this symbol subtly without compromising on the modern minimalist aesthetic.

Ideal Skills:
- Proven experience in creating minimalist logos
- Exceptional skill in color theory, specifically with muted hues
- A knack for transforming simple symbols into compelling design elements
- Experience in the gaming industry would be a tremendous advantage
