Are all mil spec AR15 lowers all identical in dimensions? At least the premium brands like Sig and Colt? Can you really take a sig upper and match it with a colt lower and expect it to fit with little to no gunsmith work done to the units?

Same with AR 10s?
 
Yes AR15 lowers and uppers from different manufacturers should match, unless otherwise specified. Some will have a bit more wobble than others, which wont affect performance, but drives some people (including myself) nuts. If you want a tight fit without tinkering yourself, you may want to look at buying a set from the same manufacturer like Aero, or buying a lower with a tension screw.

For .308, I am not sure. I only know there are two different standards with somewhat different parts. I don't know if discrepancy affects upper/lower match.
