what does "line up the sights"mean? 【As the dawn shadows withered away they piled into a white Cadillac and tooled along under a flawless sky to a site of breath-taking natural beauty, and there the guest of honor did what was expected of him. The mechanics were relatively simple. Hitting a bulls-eye isn't much of an accomplishment. You kiss the stock with your cheek, line up the sights, take a deep breath and let a little out, then hold the breath to keep an even strain, and gently squeeze. Changing a tire requires more skill.】 1.what does "line up the sights"mean? 2.what does "changing a tire " mean?3.what does "let a little out" mean?

lining up the sights means being able to align the gun/arrow with your eye and the target so you can hit it. If your sights were not aligned you would miss. Changing a tire means removing the wheel from your car and replacing it. Changing a tire is a relatively easy and common thing so they are saying that hitting a bulls eye is even easier.
