I've never heard of one either. Wonder if it was refinished?

I have one.  I posted a picture of it with a couple of others in the P-07/P-09 forum.

As I understand it, there was a production run of 1,000 of them.  They came with a Kershaw Ken Onion Vapor pocket knife with the CZ logo on it. 

I bought mine used (very little), so I didn't get the knife. 

They don't come along often, better snatch it up!

I've got one as well, and I love it to death.

From what I've read, there have been two runs of the OD green 75Bs: the first in 2005, and then again in 2007. I think there were 500 per run (so 1000 total), and only the 2005 ones came with the knife (I may be wrong about that though, I bought mine used so it didn't come with one). The 2005 model should read 9mm Para on the slide, while the 2007 has 9mm Luger instead (they also have the year printed next to the ejection port). Additionally, they both come with a lanyard/dummy cord loop on the base of the frame, though it's easily replaceable if you don't like it. 

As Winkel said, they don't pop up that often, so if you like it, hop on it. Personally, I think the OD green is really sharp looking, but still subtle enough to not look tacky, I think you should go for it  ;D

The only green 75B i had heard of before reading this thread was the "CZ75B Tactical" (This is hows its listed on the CA handgun roster). Forest green frame, lanyard loop main spring plug, rubber grips and grip checkering. As rare as it is i wonder why its on the CA Roster.
Will work for CZ pics! (including but not limited to all CZ clones)

Here's a pic of my "Tactical" with the Kershaw Ken Onion Viper II knife that came with it:



I liked it so much that I created a "Desert Tactical" on a CZ 75B in .40 S&W:

CZ is always mismatching frames and slides, creating frankenguns.... Keeps it interesting!! Glad no one said they are super rare and worth a ton of cash ;)

Otto, how do those pistols stack up as far as performance and balance go?  I have a 75 stainless I was thinking of modifying with a Shadow slide (that it looks like you have), but I haven't found one to actually handle yet to see if it throws off the feel of the gun.

Omega, my "desert tactical" is just a stock CZ 75B in .40 S&W with a refinish and a lanyard loop. And the "tactical" is just a stock CZ 75B in 9mm "Para" in green and black. So regarding handling, just like every other CZ75B...marvelous!
