The external physical dimensions of the 10mm Delta and the 1911A1 Government Model are exactly the same.
The only differences between the two pistols are the chambering and barrels, and the magazine "lips", due to the difference of the rounds, and the names.
This is also true of ALL full-size Colt 1911 pattern automatics, including the 9mm Luger, or parabellum, and the .38 Super chamberings, as well as the Gold Cup, a hand-finished 1911A1 Match Grade w/adjustable sights.
The only differences otherwise are in the Commander Model, which has a shorter slide and barrel, and the compact, which has this, and a shortened grip and magazine, to better facilitate concealment.

Yes, they are built on the same platform/frame. Colt n Smith modified their .45acp frame for the .10mm which is why the .10mm Colts n Smiths tend to wear excessively. The .45acp frame is not strong enough for the intense .10mm, a magnum class cartridge.
Glock did it right by building a new frame for the .10mm Glock, the Model 20, and then used that frame for the .45acp Glock, the Model 21.

the only difference is the barrel, magizine, spring weights and breech face. Everything else is the same. Externally they are the same size.
