A secure accessory mounting track may comprise an elongated body with a tee-slot formed into the body. At least one end of the tee-slot terminates in an angled slot that may allow entry of device attachment hardware, but which will not permit the device attachment hardware to escape from the track when a device attached to the track is loosened only enough to adjust the position of a device. This fully secures the device along the entire length of the track, even when adjusting the position of the device. Attachment of the device may be achieved by fully tightening the attachment hardware to clamp a retaining flange between the hardware and the device. Removal of the device may require the attachment hardware to be loosened farther than what would be required for adjusting the position of the device.
