For this job I'd stick to air or electric or go old school and buy a heavy duty hand operated stapler. I liked the Black and Decker that squeezed to the front rather than the back. They fired easily and didn't have a problem going into pine.

Here's the B&D stapler I'm referencing http://www.acehardware.com/product/index.jsp?productId=1295964
