But what message are you getting across? There's more than one message here.

Message 1. ....(They didn't hear it).....

Message 2. Noise coming through several walls/doors/floors will not sound like a shotgun being racked. Tried this at my house. On the same floor but from across the house it doesn't sound like anything. Just a muffled click that could be anything. From 3rd to 1st floor can't even hear it.

Message 3. Here I am!! Aim this way!!! Shoot over here!!!

Not a message but something to think about. Either your shotgun was empty and not ready or you just lost one round. It's about as useful as when the good guy racks the slide of his gun when he points it at the bad guy.
