I find that depending on the situation I'm in, I use a different grip. Shorter grips are good for snapshotting, longer grips are good taking your time and lining up the shot. Thus, I have both.
It may look silly to some people, but don't knock it until you try it. There is a method to the madness.

Why not just have a single folding grip? Fold it up when you want to be agile, or flip it down when you need more support and stability. No need for all the silliness of two foregrips. :p

Are you able to move the folding foregrip on the rail system as quickly and easy as you can fold it? Does it still sit flush with the gun when it is folded down?
Folding foregrips are not as efficient as two foregrips. They are bulky, large, and heavier than two Magpul attachments. The folding foregrips do not allow for adequate gun control even in tilted positions.
Folding one down completely cuts it down to about half it's height, it still juts out from the rail system. I do not see how it would create for a more agile gun. In this comparison, the short foregrips that are often found in double foregrip configurations would be more out of the way and more agile than a folded folding foregrip.
Who says two foregrips are silly? In my opinion, folding foregrips are silly. I think they are uncomfortable, and do not do their job effectively.

Okay. Stupid thought, but I can only see half of the guns.
I guess you are REALLY talking about two foregrips on you gun? What the f? That is the dumbest thing I have seen done to a weapon, next to Gold'in or Chroming your gun. There is no reason for any person to do this dumb idea, unless they have three arms. The single vertical drop foregrip is good, but to have two drop, one on the side, or any combination is plain mentally challanged or better yet should go play Nerf...
Maybe every "cool" player needs to do this! That way all the little ones will follow suit and make everyone look like the short bus forgot them...
If I am wrong, then I will run the next op with double foregrips and have every person hold as I take a picture to show the world....
