An equipment mounting system comprising: a quick mount track comprising a backing plate with a first outer slot , a second outer slot and a plurality of locking pin apertures formed in a surface thereof; and a mount comprising a plurality of mounting studs and a locking pin , wherein the mount is operable to be removably coupled to the quick mount track by means of a locked position and a release position; characterized in that : the first outer slot , the second outer slot and the plurality of locking pin apertures are spaced apart and parallel with each other along an elongate dimension of the backing plate , wherein the first outer slot and the second outer slot comprise a plurality of contoured target regions that are sized and spaced to engage with respective ones of the plurality of mounting studs when the mount is in the unlocked position so that, upon subsequent slidable movement of the mount to the locked position, (a) the plurality of mounting studs are positioned within the respective one of the first and second outer slots to be out of alignment with the plurality of contoured target regions and directly over corresponding ones of a plurality of mounting points that are positioned within each of the first and second outer slots , and (b) the locking pin is engaged within a corresponding one of the plurality of locking pin apertures . a quick mount track comprising a backing plate with a first outer slot , a second outer slot and a plurality of locking pin apertures formed in a surface thereof; and a mount comprising a plurality of mounting studs and a locking pin , wherein the mount is operable to be removably coupled to the quick mount track by means of a locked position and a release position; characterized in that : the first outer slot , the second outer slot and the plurality of locking pin apertures are spaced apart and parallel with each other along an elongate dimension of the backing plate , wherein the first outer slot and the second outer slot comprise a plurality of contoured target regions that are sized and spaced to engage with respective ones of the plurality of mounting studs when the mount is in the unlocked position so that, upon subsequent slidable movement of the mount to the locked position, (a) the plurality of mounting studs are positioned within the respective one of the first and second outer slots to be out of alignment with the plurality of contoured target regions and directly over corresponding ones of a plurality of mounting points that are positioned within each of the first and second outer slots , and (b) the locking pin is engaged within a corresponding one of the plurality of locking pin apertures . the first outer slot and the second outer slot comprise a plurality of contoured target regions that are sized and spaced to engage with respective ones of the plurality of mounting studs when the mount is in the unlocked position so that, upon subsequent slidable movement of the mount to the locked position, (a) the plurality of mounting studs are positioned within the respective one of the first and second outer slots to be out of alignment with the plurality of contoured target regions and directly over corresponding ones of a plurality of mounting points that are positioned within each of the first and second outer slots , and (b) the locking pin is engaged within a corresponding one of the plurality of locking pin apertures . (a) the plurality of mounting studs are positioned within the respective one of the first and second outer slots to be out of alignment with the plurality of contoured target regions and directly over corresponding ones of a plurality of mounting points that are positioned within each of the first and second outer slots , and (b) the locking pin is engaged within a corresponding one of the plurality of locking pin apertures . <EOS>
