It was Uncanny X-Men #169 (Volume 1) in 1983 for me.

Probably X-Men Unlimited #1 and Uncanny #201, sometime in '93, for me.Let the flames destroy all but that which is pure and true!

These two. I picked them both up at the same time from a Waldenbooks (or B. Dalton?) in the mall, strictly because I liked the covers, and they made absolutely no sense to 8 yr old me. I finally found a LCS in my area by the time of the big relaunch, and added Uncanny #281 and X-Men #1 to to my pull list. They made... a little more sense?

Had to be X-Men 10, because I remember discovering both the team and Ka-Zar at the same time. That was a lucky trip to the grocery store!

Uncanny X-men 248 (volume 1) First issue with Jim Lee. I had no idea who any of these people were besides Wolverine and I had to go back and read about them!
Classic X-men was the other. I don’t recall the issue number. When they were being held by the Hellfire Club during the Dark Phoenix Saga. The back up story was also drawn by Jim Lee!
I think i was heading into 7th grade.

If we want to count Wolverine's series, the first X-men comic I ever read was Wolverine #73.
But if you want an actual comic that has X-men in the title, it was probably Uncanny #305. My memory is a bit fuzzy on that one.

First ever would be this European publication:
In English, UXM #184 would be my first X-comic I remember reading...
