A quick attachment apparatus for use in association with orthopedic instrumentation and/or tools for releasable connection to a device, including a coupling member defining a passage extending generally along a longitudinal axis and sized to slidably receive a connection portion of the device, a locking member transitionable between a locked position and an unlocked position, a biasing member engaged between the coupling member and the locking member to bias the locking member into engagement against the connection portion to substantially prevent relative axial movement between the coupling member and the connection portion, and wherein application of a lateral force onto the locking member results in displacement of the coupling member generally along a transverse axis wherein the locking member is disengaged from the connection portion to allow relative axial movement between the coupling member and the connection portion.
