Try doing a search for siding nailer or FC nailer. It's been discussed lots. From what I remember people have been using any good nailer that will take 2" ring shank wire collated HDG or stainless coil nails. Bostish, Max, Senco and Hitachi have all been mentioned.
Good luck.

Always remember those first immortal words that Adam said to Eve, “You’d better stand back, I don’t know how big this thing’s going to get.”
Lots use roofers too.
Coil nailer, I have a Bostich N64C (I think)works good.
Maze makes a galvy nail for Hardi they say they developed with Hardi. Kinda pricey & small heads too.

We always use a roofing gun for blind nailing. then use a siding gun if we have to face nail to draw in a bowed piece. We use all Hitachi guns.
Hitachi NV 65AH - Check Ebay
