OK. I need to fix a couple of sentences.

daijr: ちょう【挺・梃・丁】
はさみ一丁	34
はさみ一挺	No matches
鉄砲一丁	        87
鉄砲一挺	        47

丁 isn't rare, it's the most common kanji for this counter. The reason it was in a note is that we already have this sense on 丁/ちょう (1427240). But I see no reason to split up the kanji forms. Daijr and daijs don't.
I suggest leading with 丁 on this entry and dropping sense 3 from 1427240.
