As tonight's all-new episode of Hawaii 5-0 takes a turn for the explosive, the cast gives us the lowdown on what it's like to take on real big guns.

The Insider's Brooke Anderson was exclusively on the set of the high-octane episode, and as she quickly came to discover, the actors have no qualms about lifting the veil and exposing how little they know about real weaponry.

"It's real boy stuff," explained Alex O'Loughlin giddily. "They're props essentially at the end of the day, but they're fun props and they make big sounds."

While Alex admits he tends to revert into childish delight at the opportunity to pay pretend and be a rough-and-tumble guy, he comes clean declaring, "I'm just not as hard as Steve McGarrett. I play a tough guy and it hurts... daily."

Watch the video to hear more from the cast, including the secret wish hottie Scott Caan says he'd someday like fulfilled for Danny.
