How to unlock the Fireworks achievement in Resident Evil 5 - Definitive Guide
They will always need a bit of time before they throw it so aim for the hand and shoot.
Can be done with any firearm and also the pistol works just fine.
Chapter 2-1, you'll have an encounter with the dogs and then move round the containers and drop down. Here will be a few more dogs and a big guy Majini, look on top of the container behind him and you will see a Majini with explosives in his hand. Shoot it and you're done.
During the course of the game you'll encounter a range of enemies attempting to lob one of these at you. At the end of 2-2 before the boss fight, you'll find yourself in a canyon area. Near the furthest end of the canyon a lot of Majini will be throwing dynamite. I obtained this trophy completely unintentionally in this area.

In mission 2-1 you'll face your first mutant dogs in a maze of shipping containers. When you exit this little maze you'll be greeted by a large Majini, who likes to punch. After taking this guy down you'll see a Majini on your left on a container. You should be able to hit the bomb in his left hand from a distance, while he struggles to hit you. Alternatively, if you have a rifle you could replay this level and pick him off a little easier, but it's far from difficult anyway.
Note: Don't get too close to the guy or Sheva might kill him and he'll also have a much better chance of hitting you
First I tried with a sniper rifle, but it doesn't work.
That is, you need to hit the Molotov dynamite grenade using NOT the optics of a sniper rifle.
