................The meaning of AIM as a noun............
1.The sniper had his enemy in his crosshairs.
2.The sniper took his AIM at his enemy.
3. He missed his aim.
4. His aim was bad
Does ‘aim’ mean the target or the crosshairs or the act of pointing at someone? I’m confused about this word.
Thank you very much and good morning. :)

Yes, you're understanding it correctly. Generally, an 'aim' as a noun is what your intending to accomplish, what you're intending to target, achieve, etc. In your example, 'aim' is synonymous with hitting the target.
Aim can either be a verb (He aimed down the sights) or a noun (he missed his shot because his aim was bad, a good soldier should have good aim)
General uses for 'aim' are:
My aim was to get an A on the test.
I was aiming to finish the project by Friday but now it's delayed.

Oh wow. This is a good question. Aim can be a verb as in the act of aiming. One uses the crosshairs to aim (as a tool in other words).
One aims at the target through the crosshairs - so yes it is the act of pointing a "ballistic weapon" (or a projectile) at someone.
Good Morning and thank you as well 😊
