[Closed] Shimano disc brake calipers - are front and rear identical

Hey all, wondering if anyone can confirm something for me...

From looking at the pictures on the shimano website, I think the front and rear disc brake calipers are actually identical, the only difference being the type of adapter fitted. Can anyone confirm this?

So if I was to buy a front post-mount caliper (which by my thinking would come with no adapter), I could then buy an IS to PM +20mm rear adapter and it would fit the back, right? Or am I being thick?
